Persian Qum Silk - 1.48x0.99

Qum rug production is a great success story. The first looms were established in the 1930s at the instigation of a group of Kashan merchants. Qum gained for itself a reputation for high-quality rugs. Its rugs are not merely copies of those of other centres. This is because of the geniuses of their designers. For the Qum designers have adapted or created designs in a style which are distinctively their own whilst being inspired by designs from other areas. Despite this, Qum rugs are relatively easy to identify. Colours are varied and often vivid ivory and white being the popular colours for the field. The border is normally composed of three bands, while border Herati are found, the central band often takes its motif from the ground design. The border is normally small in relation to the total area of the rug. Qum silk rugs represents the pinnacle possible by way of combination of brilliant design, craftsmanship and materials. Qum silk carpets are amongst the finest of carpets. Knotted entirely of silk results in results in a carpet with great lustre which is highly durable and luxurious.
