  • History of Kashan Rugs

    Kashan weaving techniques originated in the historic city of the same name, a major center of Persian art and commerce. The Safavid-era Kashan court carpets from the 16th and 17th centuries are a testament to the historical roots of Kashan styles, which were produced for elite patrons and helped legitimize the later revival of this art. The peak of prestige for Kashan Persian rugs dates back to 1890–1930, with the Mohtasham Kashan rugs at the highest tier. Today, the quality of late 19th- and 20th-century rugs varies, but true antique Kashan carpets are highly regarded for their craftsmanship, symmetry, and imported fine wool.
