Super Fine Persian Kashan

£2,100£2,700In stock, ready to ship

A magnificent Super Fine Persian Kashan, masterfully hand-knotted in the historic weaving city of Kashan, Central Iran — a carpet that represents the very pinnacle of traditional Persian weaving. At 275 cm × 190 cm, this is a beautifully proportioned room size, perfect for bringing timeless grandeur to living rooms, dining spaces, or principal bedrooms. A rich, luminous crimson field provides the most striking backdrop for an exquisite multi-layered central medallion — glowing with soft ivory, sky blue, and delicate blush, surrounded by an endless array of scrolling vines, graceful palmette leaves, and blossoming flowers that unfurl across the entire surface. Every detail is rendered with extraordinary precision and delicacy — from the tiniest petal to the most sweeping scroll — creating a sense of breathtaking depth and perfect symmetrical harmony. Deep midnight-blue borders frame the design with quiet authority, bursting with intricate floral motifs and warm amber highlights that echo the colours of the central field — enhancing the rug’s generous proportions and bold presence from every angle. Each band is woven with such crisp, clear definition that the eye is drawn effortlessly inwards to the magnificent medallion — a study in balance, elegance, and uncompromising quality. Woven to an exceptionally high knot density, the premium wool pile is luxuriously dense, smooth, and lustrous — wonderfully soft and inviting underfoot, yet built to endure and delight for generations. This is not merely a rug — it is a masterpiece of refined craftsmanship: vibrant, timeless, and undeniably elegant — destined to be the crowning glory of your home.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 300 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 2,429,630 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 10 months.

How that is worked out: 108 in × 75 in × 300 knots per sq. in. ≈ 2,429,630 — that is 275 × 190 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.
