FAQs

Isfahan rugs originate from the historic city of Isfahan in central Iran, known for producing finely knotted textiles featuring intricate central medallions, spiralling floral arabesques, and balanced palmette designs.

These carpets are typically woven with soft, high-grade wool pile hand-knotted onto a sturdy cotton or silk warp and weft foundation, offering both durability and fine detail.

Authentic pieces show subtle variations in knot size, a design pattern that is clearly visible on the reverse without any synthetic backing fabric, and natural colour variations known as abrash.

A classic Persian rug can anchor a living space by providing visual weight, grounding modern minimalist furniture, and introducing rich tonal warmth and historic pattern to neutral interiors.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush, turn the rug 180 degrees annually to balance wear from light exposure, and rely on professional rug cleaners for spot removal.
