Its classic design and well-proportioned size make it a perfect fit for various interior settings, from living rooms to large hallways, adding a touch of oriental charm.

Origin/Province

Joshgan - Joshagan rugs hail from the eponymous Persian village, a tradition steeped in history since the 17th-century Safavid era. Known for their distinctive diamond-shaped central medallion set against a deep red field filled with geometric floral motifs, these rugs also feature contrasting dark blue borders, occasionally adorned with stylized weeping willows. While the design resembles Hamadan rugs more than nearby Isfahan, the neighbouring village of Mehmeh produces similar rugs, albeit with a finer weave. These rugs' enduring design and vibrant colour schemes make them a remarkable testament to the region's rich rug-weaving heritage.

Manufacturing

Persian rugs are renowned for their handmade and hand-knotted craftsmanship, a testament to meticulous artistry. In this process, artisans intricately tie each knot by hand, crafting detailed patterns that require months to complete. Following the knotting, the rug undergoes trimming, washing, and finishing, culminating in a distinctive piece that embodies both artistic beauty and lasting durability.

Care guide

To uphold the grandeur and longevity of your Persian rug, a consistent mix of routine and periodic care is key. Lightly vacuum your rug weekly, taking care to avoid the delicate fringes. Each month, perform a more comprehensive clean, vacuuming both the front and reverse using a brushless suction head to protect the fibres. Seasonally, rotate your rug to evenly distribute wear and counteract colour fading from sunlight exposure. By adhering to these practices, you'll significantly enhance the lifespan and aesthetic appeal of your rug, preserving its intrinsic value for years to come.
