About Persian Kashan Rugs

Kashan rugs hail from the historic city of Kashan in central Iran, long recognized as a leading center for Persian rug weaving. These rugs are celebrated for their luxurious wool, high knot density, and refined designs—often featuring floral patterns, central medallions, and elegant color palettes of red, ivory, and navy. Many Kashan rugs from the 20th century, especially those woven pre-1970, reflect a balance of artistic tradition and technical precision, making them enduringly popular among collectors and interior designers alike.

Unique Characteristics of this Kashan Rug

What sets this particular piece apart is its finely woven landscape medallion, portraying a serene village scene—an uncommon and highly desirable motif in Persian pictorial rugs. The 260 KPSI construction speaks to the artisan’s mastery, while the saturated red field and dark floral border create a bold yet balanced aesthetic. This rug is an excellent example of mid-century Persian urban weaving at its finest.
