Isfahan carpets, named after the city of Isfahan in central Iran, are renowned handmade carpets known for their striking beauty, refined artistry and high quality. Here are some features and details about Isfahan carpets:

Origin and History:

Isfahan, a historically significant city in Iran, is a center for carpet production and other handicrafts. Isfahan carpets have a centuries-long tradition and are valued and known worldwide for their outstanding quality in wool with silk or pure silk.

Materials and knot density:

Isfahan carpets are typically made from high-quality virgin wool, with silk often used for additional shine and fineness.

These carpets have a high knot density, resulting in detailed patterning and a soft texture. The fine workmanship is reflected in the quality of the carpets.

Design and pattern:

Isfahan carpets are known for their elegant and balanced designs. Classic patterns, including floral motifs, hunting scenes and beautiful medallions, are characteristic.

The color palette ranges from soft pastels to bolder colors. Blue and red tones are frequently present and add to the splendor of the carpets.

Manufacturing techniques:

The knotting techniques for Isfahan carpets are varied and can be both symmetrical and asymmetrical. The artisans use traditional methods to create complex patterns and fine details.

Making an Isfahan rug requires precise handwork and can be time-consuming, especially for rugs with a higher knot density.
