KERMAN

Description

Kerman hand-woven carpet is an Iranian carpet that has become famous and well-known in the world by successfully mixing design and color and having a diverse color combination, and there are many proverbs praising it in Persian literature.

Kerman province is one of the vast provinces of Iran and in the southeast of the country, which is also considered as one of the important and historical provinces of Iran, and carpets, rugs, carpets, etc. are among the main handwoven products of Kerman province.

Kerman has a long history in the carpet weaving industry, but if we want to state the starting point of this industry in Kerman city, we must go to the 10th century AH in this city. Even several years later, the famous traveler Marco Polo was one of the first famous people in the world who fell in love with Kerman’s hand-woven carpets.

Of course, considering the greatness and splendor of Kerman carpets, researchers have imagined a long history for Kerman carpets. According to some documents, Kerman was one of the main centers of carpet weaving in the world in the 17th century, and at the end of the 19th century, when carpet weaving flourished in Iran, Kerman once again introduced itself as a producer of one of the most luxurious Iranian carpets. . However, in recent years, Kerman carpets, like some carpet weaving areas of the country, have unfortunately had a downward trend and no longer have their former glory.
