FAQs

Kashan rugs originate from central Persia and are historically recognised for their fine knotting density, curvilinear floral motifs, and sophisticated central medallions.

Authentic pieces from this period typically utilise fine hand-spun wool or silk for the pile, often combined with cotton or silk foundations and occasionally metallic thread accents.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the irregularities in hand-knotting on the reverse, natural vegetable dye variations, knot count density, and the natural wear patterns consistent with age.

An antique rug can be used to ground contemporary furniture schemes, adding historical texture and rich colour palettes as a focal point in neutral or minimalist rooms.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialised cleaning when necessary, protection from direct sunlight to prevent fading, and the use of a breathable underlay.
