Persian Rug, Tehran Persian Rug, Antique Persian Rug

Persian Carpet Collection

408cm x 317cm 13-meter carpet in Tehran, special, unique, original, beautiful, amazing - 19th Certainly, carpet weaving, which was one of the most important occupations of Iranian households, was also common in Tehran. Old paintings and photographs show the rural nature of Tehran's old carpets. To study and access the examples of Tehran carpets (Tehran rural carpets), it is not enough to go to the carpet weaving situation today. Because the developments of the last 1.5 centuries have changed Tehran so much that the texture of the old rural carpet of Tehran with its past identity is rarely woven or is not common at all. Over time, as a number of wealthy Qajar families began to produce carpets out of curiosity, a flood of immigrants flooded into central Iran. Gradually, a new awesomeness emerged for Tehran's carpet weaving, and due to the influx of immigrants and the transfer of its traditional carpet weaving trade and its combination with Tehran's rural carpet, an urban style trend emerged in Tehran's carpet weaving. This movement was also destroyed. To study the designs and patterns of the carpets of this period, one can only refer to the photographs and samples of the museum; Because today, no trace of such designs can be found in the carpets of Tehran today. Developments in carpet weaving in Tehran over the last three decades have been much broader and different from its past, and can even be said to have been unprecedented on the Iranian carpet. These developments have reached their peak, especially in the last 20 years, after the revolution. One of the obvious reasons is the abundance of migration from other cities to Tehran.

Persian Rug, Bidjar Persian Rug

Persian Carpet Collection

Bijar is one of the pioneers in carpet weaving. Bijar carpets, which are abroad, date back to 1266 AH. Many of the carpets in Kurdistan that are housed in museums belong to the city of Bijar. Most Kurdish carpets are dense, which makes them strong and durable; This makes them useful for public spaces. For many carpet experts, the word Bijar evokes the meaning of durability. The reason for the durability of carpets is that weaver weavers often use heavy wooden and metal combs to weave carpets and rugs; As a result, no waste or particles can enter the carpet space due to the compression of the carpet surface. Bijar carpets are woven with Turkish knots. As mentioned, Bijar carpet is known for its very thick mass, which is due to a special weaving method called wet weaving, which is done with the help of special tools. During weaving, the threads, wefts and carpet mass are constantly kept moist. After weaving, the carpet dries and the wool stretches, making the carpet more compact. Heavy hammering on nail-like metal tools, which are inserted into the threads when weaving, further stretches the carpet. The fabric is compressed again using fabrics of different thicknesses. Usually one of the three wefts is significantly thicker than the other wefts.

Such rugs are produced in the village of the same name in the slopes of Mount Sabalan. Heriz carpets are durable and hard-wearing and they can last for generations. 19th century examples of such carpets are often found on sale by major auction houses in United States and Europe.

In the Safavid era, which was the peak of the flourishing of art in Iran, carpets, like other arts, flourished during this period. This industry declined in the early Qajar period. The beginning of the Industrial Revolution and the arrival of textile and machine-made fabrics, which led to a decrease in the production of handicrafts, was the main factor in the art of carpet weaving in Kerman. The fame and fame of the Kerman carpet is more than anything due to its color scheme and design. The design and color of the Kerman carpet is one of the most exquisite, beautiful, and elegant woven fabrics in the world.
