Kashan Persian Rugs
This brand new Kashan Persian rug measures 11'4" x 8'0", showcasing the pristine craftsmanship that emerges from the master weavers of Isfahan. The cream field serves as an elegant canvas for the intricate medallion (Toranj) design, while navy blue and burgundy accents create a sophisticated color story enhanced by touches of gold, forest green, rust red, brown, and beige. Each asymmetrical Persian knot has been carefully placed to create a luxurious pile that catches light beautifully, making this a one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece that elevates any living space with its fresh, unblemished beauty.
The historic city of Kashan, nestled in central Persia, has been synonymous with exceptional carpet weaving since the Safavid era of the 16th century. Persian weavers in this region developed their renowned techniques under royal patronage, creating rugs that adorned the palaces of shahs and nobility. The tradition of Kashan carpet making reached its zenith during the reign of Shah Abbas, when the city's workshops produced some of the finest textiles in the Persian Empire. This particular rug continues that centuries-old legacy, woven in Isfahan using the same time-honored methods that have been passed down through generations of master craftsmen.
The central medallion (Toranj) represents the dome of heaven in Persian cosmology, surrounded by Shah Abbasi palmettes that symbolize abundance and prosperity. Delicate Eslimi (arabesque) patterns flow throughout the field like flowering vines, creating movement and rhythm across the surface. The navy blue border grounds the composition while burgundy guard borders add depth and definition. This sophisticated design vocabulary speaks to the Persian weaver's mastery of symbolic storytelling through textile art.
The cream foundation allows the rich burgundy and navy blue elements to shine with particular vibrancy, while gold highlights add warmth and luxury to the overall palette. Forest green accents provide natural balance, complemented by rust red details that echo the earth tones of ancient Persian architecture. Brown and beige subtly enhance the composition's depth, creating a harmonious color symphony that works beautifully in both traditional and contemporary settings.
At 11'4" x 8'0", this rug is perfectly proportioned for dining rooms, living areas, or master bedrooms where its generous size can anchor furniture groupings while leaving elegant borders. Los Angeles Home of Rugs is proud to offer this exceptional example of contemporary Persian weaving, where traditional motifs meet modern home styling needs. The brand new condition ensures decades of beauty ahead, while the natural wool and cotton construction promises lasting durability and timeless appeal.
