Throughout history, Persian rugs represented tradition and the history of Iran and its people. The skill of carpet weaving had been handed down – not from mother to daughter – but from father to son. Generation after generation built on these carpet weaving skills. They were considered well-guarded family secrets.

Many are now treasured in museums and private collections in palaces and mansions around the world. There are many styles and patterns, each with its own story.
