The robust Gabbeh carpets of the Qashqai from Malayer and Kavir, as well as the intricate knots from Baluch and Golestan, capture the essence of the Persian Gulf and the Caspian Sea. In the picturesque cities of Isfahan, Shiraz, and Tabriz, the art of carpet weaving thrives, while Kashan, Tehran, and Yazd preserve the traditions of Persian carpets. The ancient cities of Kerman and Mashhad are known for their intricate carpet patterns, while Ardabil, Bidjar, and Ziegler are home to some of the finest Persian carpets.
