Persian carpets: the carpet that unites east and west
There is something about Persian carpets that captures the heart of everyone who sees them. Maybe it's the way they unite East and West, or maybe it's their stunning beauty. Whatever it is, these rugs have a special allure that cannot be denied.
Many people are surprised that the Persian carpets come from Persia , a country with a rich and fascinating history. The carpets are made by hand from the highest quality materials and each one is unique. If you take good care of them, a Persian carpet will last for centuries, making them a wise investment for any home. Even when they are worn out, they breathe new life into them and are made into a vintage rug .
A valuable family heirloom
Persian carpets have a long and illustrious history, dating back to the 16th century. They were originally made in Persia, but today they can be found all over the world. We import all our carpets ourselves.
Persian carpets are known for their quality and craftsmanship, and are considered a symbol of luxury and wealth. Families pass them on from generation to generation, and consider them a valuable family heirloom.
How do you recognize a real Persian carpet?
Persian carpets usually have symmetrical or asymmetrical knots and the base of the carpet is usually made of cotton. The pile is made of wool. You often see colors like red, blue and gold.
Persian carpets have become incredibly popular in recent years and that also means that the designs are copied. It can be difficult to tell the difference between a real and a fake Persian rug, but there are a few things to look out for. One of the most obvious is the quality of the materials used – a real Persian rug is made from high quality wool and cotton, while a fake rug is likely to be made from synthetic materials.
The design of the rug is also important – a genuine Persian rug has intricate and carefully knotted designs, while a counterfeit is likely to be much simpler. If you are not sure whether a carpet is real or not, it is always best to ask an expert. All our carpets come with a certificate of authenticity.
Unique craftsmanship
Persian carpets are unique because of their history and craftsmanship. They are handcrafted from high quality materials, and each one is handcrafted. They are often passed down from generation to generation and are considered a valuable family heirloom.
