This is a refined 4x6 hand-knotted Kashan wool rug that exemplifies the precision associated with traditional Persian craftsmanship. Woven with high-quality New Zealand wool and a dense 200 KPSI weave, the rug showcases an intricate network of floral and vine motifs arranged around a geometric medallion that subtly emerges from the ivory field. Accents of rose, celadon, blue, red, and brown add crisp definition to each element, enhancing depth and symmetry typical of master-woven Kashan pieces. The contrasting black and deep-toned borders give the design architectural strength while grounding its delicate interior palette. With its medium-pile texture providing both softness and durability, this 4x6 rug is an excellent choice for U.S. buyers seeking collectible Persian rugs, traditional wool décor, and timeless craftsmanship for studies, entryways, or intimate living spaces.

Story Behind the Art: Kashan rugs take their name from the historic city of Kashan, Iran, where master weavers established a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship and refined artistic detail. These rugs are distinguished by their dense floral ornamentation, including arabesques, palmettes, rosettes, blossoms, and leafy vines arranged in continuous or centralized layouts. Many feature a commanding central medallion accented by corner spandrels and repeated botanical motifs. During the 16th century, highly skilled Persian craftsmen traveled to regions within modern-day Pakistan and India, where they established workshops capable of producing Kashan-style rugs that rivaled—and sometimes surpassed—the originals from Persia. These designs remain prized for their beauty, precision, and enduring quality in the world of traditional hand-knotted rugs.
