Persian Kashan

£1,950£2,400In stock, ready to ship

A graceful and beautifully proportioned Persian Kashan, masterfully hand-knotted in the historic weaving city of Kashan, Central Iran — a carpet that embodies the timeless refinement for which this region is celebrated. At 300 cm × 207 cm, this is a generous and versatile room size, perfect for bringing quiet grandeur to living rooms, dining spaces, or principal bedrooms. A luminous ivory field provides a serene, welcoming backdrop for a graceful layered medallion — radiating in soft taupe, champagne, and warm gold, surrounded by an abundance of finely detailed floral sprays, scrolling vines, and elegant palmettes. Every element is woven with delicate precision — the palette gentle and sophisticated: blush and soft gold add warmth and softness, while muted charcoal provides crisp definition and depth without ever overwhelming the design. The effect is calm, elegant, and endlessly versatile — sitting beautifully in both traditional and modern interiors. Harmoniously layered borders in warm taupe and cream frame the design with quiet authority — each band echoing the motifs and colours of the central field, creating perfect balance and a sense of effortless symmetry. The outer border in deep charcoal grounds the piece with a refined, understated finish that enhances its generous proportions. Woven from the finest premium wool, the pile is exceptionally smooth, dense, and luxuriously soft underfoot — a pleasure to walk upon, yet built to endure and delight for generations. This is a truly versatile heirloom piece: understated, graceful, and enduring — destined to bring warmth and refined beauty to your home for many years to come.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 290 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 2,750,946 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 10 months.

How that is worked out: 118 in × 80 in × 290 knots per sq. in. ≈ 2,750,946 — that is 300 × 204 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.
