The colors are fresh without loss of color and not faded. Kashan (Kachan, Keshan): large city in the center of Iran.
At the time of the Persian Renaissance, Kashan was the center of carpet production of legendary splendor.
Carpets with a fine weave, of very rich composition, were knotted by the royal factory of Shah Abbas.
They have become the centerpieces of museums and private collections.
Craftsmanship was interrupted in Kashan between the invasion of the Afghans (1722) and the end of the 19th century.
The revival of carpet production began with carpets that are distinguished by the superior quality of the wool giving an extremely velvety appearance.
These examples are called Kashan Motashemi, named after the most famous master weaver of the late 19th century.
The designs are varied and offer meticulous craftsmanship: hunting scenes, figured subjects inspired by Persian mythology, birds in a plant setting, trees of life.
Thanks to the superior quality of the wool, their dense knotting, the beauty of their natural colors and their fine designs, the Kashan took their place among the best Persian rugs.
This rug has been professionally and ecologically cleaned.
