FAQs

Hamadan rugs are hand-knotted floor coverings originating from the city of Hamadan and surrounding weaving villages in western Iran, known for geometric designs and durable construction.

These rugs are crafted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a cotton or wool warp and weft foundation, relying on single-warp weave techniques for strength.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-tied knots visible on the reverse, minor handwoven variations in pattern, and natural colour gradations known as abrash.

Positioning the rug centrally anchors furniture in neutral rooms, providing grounding structure, historical depth, and visual texture.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only nozzle without a rotary brush, rotate annually to balance foot traffic wear, and spot clean with mild soapy water.
