A Persian Isfahan rug is a type of luxurious handmade rug originating from the Isfahan Province in Iran, a renowned weaving center. These exquisite rugs are crafted with high-quality wool pile on a cotton or silk foundation, often featuring silk accents throughout the pile.

With a high knot density, sometimes 500 to 700 knots per square inch, these rugs are a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the weavers. Boasting a vibrant yet balanced color palette, Isfahan rugs often feature rich reds, deep blues, and striking ivories, making them a true masterpiece of Persian artistry.
