Increasingly rare Persian carpets

Fewer and fewer Iranians are opting for a job in one of the oldest trades in the country. Carpet knotting requires a high degree of patience and a great deal of experience. In addition, the filigree work on the looms is not uncommon. An Iranian proverb says "May your hands never hurt".

Oriental carpets and rugs are coming back for modern interiors

A new trend is coming and it involves the Orient. Handknotted oriental carpets are finding their way into scandinavian and bohemian interior concepts.

Authentic oriental carpets: A piece of hard work

Nowadays, most carpets are industrially produced. In contrast to these machine-made carpets, Persian carpets knotted by hand reach an extremely high knot density, which increases the lifetime and decreases the sensitivity to dirt. The historic craft of knotting carpets is a craft of calmness, serenity, precision and attention to detail. Of course, hand crafting comes with a higher price - for some carpets their production takes more than a year of hard work. In addition to that, rising wages and material costs lead to higher prices of the products. That is exactly why a real oriental carpet is an investment with gain in value over time.
