Persian Kashan

£1,850£2,200In stock, ready to ship

A magnificent Persian Kashan, hand-knotted in the historic weaving city of Kashan in Central Iran — a region celebrated for centuries for carpets of unrivalled grace and enduring beauty. Measuring 287 cm × 197 cm, this is a generous and perfectly proportioned piece, ideal for living rooms, dining spaces or principal bedrooms. A rich, luminous crimson field centres upon a stately multi-layered medallion — detailed with sky blue, soft ivory and glowing gold — surrounded by an abundance of scrolling vines, palmettes and blossoming flowers rendered in exquisite detail. Every curve and petal flows with natural harmony; the design is full and rich yet never crowded, perfectly balanced and deeply satisfying to the eye. Wide, deep midnight-blue borders frame the field with perfect symmetry and breathtaking depth, repeating elegant floral motifs that echo the colours within — warm amber and soft gold highlights lift the design, lending it a warmth and presence that transforms any room. Woven from the finest soft wool, the pile is luxuriously dense, smooth and resilient underfoot — built to grace your home for generations. A true classic — vibrant, regal and undeniably timeless — destined to be the heart of your living space.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 290 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 2,541,433 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 12 months.

How that is worked out: 113 in × 78 in × 290 knots per sq. in. ≈ 2,541,433 — that is 287 × 197 cm converted to inches, because knot density is counted per square inch.

Magnify past 13× and the field stops being a picture and becomes what it actually is: rows of individual knots, each one a decision about colour made at a particular moment.

The same test works in the shop, on any rug, with no equipment. We wrote up how to do it in the back of the rug tells you everything.
