This Persian rug comes from Kashan, an ancient oasis town in central Iran along the Kavir desert. It is one of Iran’s oldest cities, with archaeological evidence of prehistoric human settlements in the nearby Sialk hills. Kashan has a long history of silk rug production, dating back to the 17th century. Iranian Kashan rugs still follow the traditional designs and techniques of the old masters.
