At the time of the Persian Renaissance, Kashan was the centre of carpet production of legendary splendour. Finely woven carpets of great richness of composition were knotted by the royal factory of Shah Abbas.
They have become the centrepieces of museums and private collections.
Craftsmanship was interrupted in Kashan between the invasion of the Afghans (1722) and the end of the 19th century.
The revival of carpet production began with carpets distinguished by the superior quality of the wool giving an extremely velvety appearance.
These examples are called Kashan Motashemi, named after the most famous master weaver of the late 19th century.
The decorations are varied and offer a meticulous craftsmanship: hunting scenes, subjects with figures inspired by Persian mythology, birds in a plant decor, trees of life.
Thanks to the superior quality of the wool, their dense knotting, the beauty of their natural colors and their fine designs, the Kashan took their place among the best Persian carpets.
This carpet has been professionally and ecologically cleaned.
