persian carpet

symbol of iranian art

The name of Iran, among many other things, is tied to rug and carpet. These products have followed the country's name and heritage for more than 2500 years.
A Persian carpet or Persian rug is a heavy textile, made for a wide variety of utilitarian and symbolic purpose, produced in Iran for home use, local sale and export.

Carpet weaving is an essential part of Persian culture and Iranian art. The word paradise comes from the Persian word Pardis. And Pardis means heavenly garden in Persian.
The initial design of the Persian carpets has been taken from Pardis, which is now called the garden design. It is like Iranians have brought their beautiful gardens into their houses. It is one of the integral elements of the Iranian lifestyle; a place feels like home when there is a Persian carpet in it.

Persian Rugs can add a beautiful splash of color and delineate separate spaces in open floor plans, contemporary designs and spaces. They add a warm and richness to the space that pulls it all together.
