Isfahan Persian rugs are hand-woven in the city of Isfahan. The city has been at the pinnacle of the rug industry since the 16th century. Isfahans are among the finest of all Persian rugs. They are woven of wool and silk and feature delicate and intricate patterns. Curvilinear vines loop around intricate medallions in Shah Abbas fields. Other motifs include pictorial and tree of life designs. Older Isfahan rugs, those woven before the mid-20th century, feature bold reds and blues on a beige field. Newer ones tend to have subdued and subtle colors. |
