The Quest for a Perfect Persian Rug (Part 4)

My own search began with a simple enough request: “I want a blue one.” What followed was a bit of a rug odyssey. I spent weeks trawling London’s carpet shops, large and small, and wholesalers in trading estates off the beaten track in the north part of the city, where there’s a community of dealers.

Buying this way means you have to learn with your eyes. Rugs from different cities have their own characteristics: the fabrics used, the colors of the dyes, or design signatures that range from naturalistic flowers and animal patterns to mosque domes and calligraphy.

The End.

The Quest for a Perfect Persian Rug (Part 3)

I was drawn to the carpets from Nain, a smaller city in Isfahan province that shares many design characteristics with its illustrious neighbor. Nain rugs are woven of wool and silk, typically in creams and blues, and can be a little easier on the wallet—but not much.

Setting out to find the right rug is a journey that should not be rushed, and not just because of the sums involved when purchasing fine pieces from cities such as Isfahan, Tabriz and Kashan. You can look on Persian rugs as an investment, but never forget they were made to be used in the home (or indeed palace), not hidden away in vaults.

The Quest for a Perfect Persian Rug (Part 2)

My dad tells me his father took great care in picking his rugs. Apparently he would scratch the back of them before buying. This sounded a little odd until I started looking for myself, and I realized the back of a handmade rug gives up many secrets. It’s here you really get to appreciate the intricacy of the weaving, with some rugs counting more than a million knots per square meter.

My grandfather had rugs from Isfahan in central Iran, I am told, which means he had good taste. If he was buying today, he’d need deep pockets. They are often made of high-quality kurk wool woven onto silk warps, and can easily run into the tens of thousands of pounds to buy—particularly those from the famous Seirafian workshop.

The Quest for a Perfect Persian Rug (Part 1)

YOU DON’T NORMALLY spend thousands of pounds on a piece of art, then walk all over it. Unless you’re in the market for a Persian rug, that is.

I recently picked up the keys to my first apartment, and my mind was full of rugs— the colorful beauties that covered the marble floors of my grandfather’s home in Homs, Syria. These are gone now (while a Persian rug can survive many things, a civil war is not one of them), but the thought of them always conjures images of a large house full of people, welcoming and open to all. This is, I think, the kind of home most of us hope to make.
