The achievements of Kashan began during the Safavid dynasty (1501-1732) and particularly under the reign of Shah Abbas. Very beautiful traditional medallion kachan, in mian farsh format, recalling the academic achievements of the Safavid dynasty (1501-1732). During the reign of Shahs Abbas (1588-1629), schools were created to train Ustads (Master Weavers) who made carpet boxes. The designs were inspired by Persian tradition by reproducing hunting scenes, gardens, roses, trees, mosaic or bas-relief motifs (Persepolis)...
This kachan is the very example of this tradition. . In the center, two blue and beige medallions are inserted into a navy blue medallion. Four spandrels, reminiscent of the central medallion, as well as borders with a 'herati' or 'samovari' (flowers) motif frame the field of the carpet, which consists of a multitude of flowers and foliage on a deep red background.
