Medium Size Red-Burgundy Kashmar Persian Oriental Area Rug 5x7 Wool
The Kashmar is a relatively rare carpet produced by master weavers in the province of Khorassan, in north-eastern Iran.

The patterns are usually historic tableaux telling the story of a significant event in Persian history. Frequently there are views of the ancient ruins and sculpture of Persepolis, the kings Darius and Xerxes, and birds and animals from the Rubayat of Omar Khayam. There are also Kashmar carpets which resemble the classic Kashan, with central medallion and spandrels. - Category: Home/Family - Home D?cor - Kashmar Item: 456729437

Large Size Beige Tabriz Persian Oriental Area Rug 7x10 Wool
Tabriz is an ancient city in north-western Iran, and the most prolific of all carpet centres. The quality in their carpets is generally exceptional, with most on a base of fine cotton, but sometimes on pure silk. There are many unique designs but typically the pattern in a Tabriz rug is filled with dense floral motifs, large palmettes, vases, or vivid hunting scenes or pictorials in the field. These can be with or without a medallion, and geometric designs are also seen. Tabriz has sub-styles as well. These include the restrained and elegant 'Mahi' in co-ordinated borders of subdued tones that fit in anywhere; the Naqsheh, with its plethora of pinks on beige, or very occasionally, black; and the wild but beautiful Tabatabaie, always in touches of orange, lemon green and beige. The finer Naqsheh and Mahi are mostly in highly-priced Kurk wool, and silk is often used to outline lavishly the highlights of the rug. - Category: Home/Family - Home D?cor - Tabriz Item: 458917913

Large Size Red-Burgundy Bakhtiari Persian Oriental Area Rug 7x10 Wool
Bakhtiari people are a noble, ancient tribe surviving in the Chahar Mahal region of south-central Iran. Primitive Bakhtiari rugs frequently have a checkerboard or garden pattern decorated with trees-of-life, birds, flowers and animals, sometimes realistic, sometimes abstract. Generally these are woven with a Turkish knot. But some very beautiful floral patterns are still produced in the principal town of Shahr Kurd with the Persian knot, showing long, exaggerated medallions reminiscent of an earlier Isfahan style. Color schemes include many shades of brown, rust, yellow ochre, bottle green, beige, dark blue and red. - Home/Family - Home D?cor - Bakhtiari - 459393641

Large Size Red-Burgundy Goravan Persian Oriental Area Rug 7x10 Wool
Heriz is a small town with a grand reputation. It is located in north-western Iran, south of Tabriz in the province of Azerbaijan. The tribal Heriz is a thicker, heavier carpet, renowned for its earth tones and geometric patterns. While no two carpets are identical, they tend to have an attractive similarity. Most have a large squarish medallion in black or navy set in a lighter field, with the main colors of the rug in shades of rust red, with beige, navy, brown or black details. Sizes are usually large in these rugs, smaller sizes being rare for this group. - Home/Family - Home D?cor - Goravan - 456735061

Runner Light Brown Meshkinshahr Persian Oriental Area Rug 12 ft. runner No Pile
Ardabil is a city near the coast of the Caspian Sea, and is probably responsible for one of the oldest and most famous carpets in existence today, the 34' x 17' masterpiece housed in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Ardabil rugs usually have the famous Mahi (Herati) design, with a diamond medallion and small fish throughout. An allover pattern is sometimes seen in an Ardabil. Usually their weavers will incorporate a lot of silk into the woolen pile to accentuate some highlights in the pattern. Some modern Ardabils have started to migrate from the traditional Herati pattern to bolder geometric patterns. In addition to the usual beiges, rusts and blues, many up-to-the-minute colors can be observed in the newer Ardabils, such as a turquoise and purple. - Home/Family - Home D?cor - Meshkinshahr - 460771734
