Kashan rugs originate from the historic city of Kashan in central Iran, renowned for fine craftsmanship, dense knotting, and intricate central medallion designs set against vibrant red and blue fields.

Traditional Kashan carpets are constructed with a fine handspun wool pile, often featuring wool or cotton warps and wefts, dyed using natural vegetable colorants such as madder root and indigo.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the backside for knot density, irregularities in hand-spun wool, natural dye variation, and characteristic asymmetrical Persian knots combined with signed weaver markers or specific border motifs.

An antique rug anchors modern spaces by introducing rich texture, history, and warmth, working effectively beneath minimalist wooden furniture or contrasting against neutral stone flooring.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without rotary beater bars, professional hand-washing by specialists in textile conservation, and protection from direct sunlight to prevent dye fading.
