Room-sized
carpets of Iran (Persia) are loosley divided between
the refined floral workshop precision designs
and colours, and the more informal geometric designs
of rural towns and villages with their charm of
spontenity and bold, earthy colourways and motifs.
Persian sheep wool has long been very highly regarded
for its superb hard wearing qualities and rich,
lustrous texture, ideal for everyday home use.
The Persian hand-loomed carpet continues to hold
its well-earned reputation for quality of weaving,
wools, dyes and workmanship, with names and traditions
steeped in history. |
