How are tribal rugs different from city rugs?

Tribal rugs rely on memory patterns, asymmetrical details, and geometric motifs created by nomadic or village weavers working on portable looms. City carpets generally exhibit formal medallion layouts, precise curvilinear lines, and commercial workshop supervision.

Where were these rugs made?

Weavers produced these textiles across various regional territories, village settlements, and nomadic encampments within Persia and adjoining borderlands. Specific groups operated in western, southern, and north-eastern provinces such as Kerman, Kurdistan, and Hamadan.

How do I care for an old wool rug?

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating power head removes surface grit and protects the wool pile from abrasive wear. Professional specialist cleaning handles deeper maintenance while preserving the historical dyes and wool fibres.

A bag face is the decorative front portion of a utilitarian transport sack originally used by nomadic families for storage and travel. These panels survived independently after the original rear compartments wore away, prized for their dense tribal designs.
