Where were antique hamadan carpets made?

These carpets originate from the city of Hamadan and the surrounding rural villages situated in the West Persian region. Weavers across this extensive district produced diverse textiles incorporating local tribal motifs and regional dyeing traditions. Production spanned numerous settlements, including Borodjert and Sanjan, each contributing distinct design variations to the broader category.

How do I choose the right runner size?

Selecting a runner requires measuring your hallway or corridor carefully while leaving a uniform border of exposed flooring around the edges. Consider the length of the space, as options range from standard proportions to exceptionally long formats exceeding four metres. Ensure doors swing clear of the rug's thickness, particularly if you choose a piece with a dense, heavy pile.

How should I care for a wool rug?

Maintain your wool floor covering through regular, gentle vacuuming without the beater bar engaged to protect the hand-knotted pile. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth rather than rubbing the fibres. Professional cleaning tailored for antique textiles helps preserve the natural lanolin in the wool and keeps the colours vibrant.

How do I identify village rugs?

Village rugs often display asymmetric, spontaneous design interpretations rather than rigid, workshop-drawn precision. Look for characteristic West Persian colour palettes, regional motifs, and sturdy wool construction on cotton foundations. Many examples incorporate distinctive Kurdish or Malayer stylistic influences that reflect the heritage of the specific weaving community.
