Kashan is an important city in central Iran, with a magnificent history of carpet weaving dating from the 16th century. Classic pieces show a diamond-shaped medallion with small matching spandrels on a floral field, but all-over fields of Shah Abbas flowers, pictorial and hunting scenes are also found. They are mostly in wool, but some have been woven in pure silk. Traditional theme colors are reds and blues, but more recently Kashans have been woven in paler beiges, with greyish-blue and olive-green tones, for the international market. |

Located in north-eastern Iran, Mashad is the capital of Khorassan province and an important center of the carpet weaving industry. It is also considered the most holy city of Iran, because it houses the shrine of Imam Reza who is very dear to Muslims around the world. Mashad carpets have elegant medallions on floral fields, with color schemes of red or blue. They sometimes copy classic Kashan patterns, and sometimes all-over Herati details which may be marketed as Khorassan. |
