Hand‑knotted in and around the city of Ardebil in north‑west Iran, these rugs are heavily influenced by the celebrated workshops of nearby Tabriz. Expect finely knotted wool piles, rich palettes of indigo, ivory, and madder, and patterns that range from classic Herati repeats to bold geometrics populated with stylised birds and animals. This balanced artistry makes Ardabil rugs prized centrepieces for formal spaces.
