Josheghan Rugs
With its Geometric design in Crimson, Navy Blue and its generous 12x7 ft format, this Semi Antique Josheghan rug represents the authentic weaving heritage of Isfahan, where rugs of this quality have been hand-knotted for
generations. This Josheghan rug represents the authentic craft tradition of Isfahan, where weavers have maintained the essential practices of Persian rug-making - hand-knotting, natural materials, traditional designs - against
the pressures of industrial competition and cultural change. Every knot in this rug was tied by hand by a skilled artisan working within a tradition of incomparable cultural richness. It is a unique, irreproducible work of
handcraft that will serve its owners beautifully for generations.
Josheghan rugs originate from Isfahan in Persia, where a tradition of hand-knotted rug weaving has flourished for generations. The weavers of Isfahan have developed a distinctive regional style that combines the broad vocabulary
of Persian decorative art with the particular cultural character of their home landscape, producing rugs of genuine individuality and enduring quality that reward both immediate appreciation and extended living with them.
The design tradition of Josheghan weaving centers on geometric compositions rendered with the confident drawing vocabulary of village weaving culture. Working within a shared design tradition while expressing individual creative
preferences, Josheghan weavers produce rugs of notable visual character - compositions that are simultaneously rooted in Persian cultural convention and freshly alive with the personality of their individual makers.
Woven by hand using traditional knotting techniques on cotton foundations, this Josheghan rug features a wool pile of natural luster and resilience. The wool is drawn from sheep raised in the mountain pastures of Persia, where
animals feeding on native grasses at elevation produce fiber of exceptional quality - fiber possessing warmth, natural sheen, and structural resilience that no manufactured fiber can replicate or approach.
