The piece is clean, floor-ready, and preserved in good untouched condition with a thick pile. Measuring 210 cm high, 142 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, the carpet suits placement on floors in traditional interior settings to add warmth and pattern to living spaces, hallways, or studies. Its classic motifs and rich tones complement various rooms within a home, providing a practical textile covering that integrates easily with existing period or country house decoration.

FAQs

Veramin rugs originate from the city of Veramin in northern Iran, celebrated for their intricate repeating floral patterns, such as the Mina Khani motif, and fine knotting technique.

These rugs are hand-knotted using soft wool pile spun onto a strong cotton warp and weft foundation.

Authentic Veramin carpets feature precise symmetrical or asymmetrical knotting, repeating botanical lattice motifs, soft wool, and rich mineral or vegetable dyes such as terracotta, indigo, and ivory.

A patterned Persian carpet anchors contemporary living spaces by adding visual texture beneath clean-lined furniture, grounding neutral colour schemes, and introducing historic detail.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting, rotate the carpet annually to balance wear, and spot-clean spills immediately with a clean damp cloth and mild wool-safe detergent.
