This fine old Qum carpet exemplifies traditional Persian rug making from 1930. The piece utilises a combination of wool and silk, dyed in soft natural shades including cream, terracotta red, navy blue, and sage. The surface is decorated with an all-over repeating boteh paisley motif set against a classic ivory ground, enclosed within a detailed multi-band border. The construction shows secured ends and sides alongside an even, low-pile weave across the expanse. Measuring 320 cm high by 220 cm wide and 1 cm deep, the carpet provides substantial floor coverage for a principal reception room or a spacious study. In a modern interior, it suits an English Country House design scheme, positioned beneath large wooden furniture or centrally within a generously proportioned living space to warm stone or timber flooring. The pile displays a consistent texture, maintaining its original decorative integrity while offering a functional floor covering for daily domestic use.

FAQs

Originating from the holy city of Qum in Iran, these carpets emerged in the early twentieth century and are renowned for high knot density, intricate botanical or boteh patterns, and fine silk or wool weaves.

Qum carpets are hand-knotted using high-grade silk or fine wool pile woven onto silk or cotton foundations, resulting in dense detail and soft texture.

Authentic pieces display high knot counts, tight asymmetrical weaving visible on the underside, detailed borders, and classic motifs like the repeating boteh or central medallion.

The intricate patterns and warm tones of a Qum rug provide visual weight and historic character, anchoring neutral modern living rooms, dining spaces, or traditional study areas.

Vacuum gently without using a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically to ensure even wear, protect from prolonged direct sunlight, and utilise professional dry cleaning tailored for fine textiles.
