The History of the Persian Carpet

The history of the Persian carpet goes back a long way and is rich in tradition and cultural heritage. The production of carpets in Persia, now Iran, can be traced back up to 2500 years. Persian carpets are famous for their artistic design, fine craftsmanship and use of high quality materials.

During the Safavid dynasty (16th to 18th centuries), the carpet industry in Iran reached its peak. The Safavid rulers promoted art and culture and commissioned renowned artists to create magnificent carpets for royal palaces and court ceremonies. These Persian carpets, as they are known today, were often decorated with flowering gardens, animal motifs and ornate patterns.

How to properly care for your Persian carpet

A Persian carpet is a true work of art that is durable and can provide you with long-lasting enjoyment. To maintain the beauty and value of your Persian rug, careful care is necessary. Here are some tips for cleaning and preservation:

Use a protective pad to keep the carpet in place and prevent unnecessary wear and tear.

Vacuum the carpet regularly (once or twice a week) to remove dust and dirt. Be sure to handle the fringe carefully to avoid damage.

For stains such as red wine, act immediately and rinse the stain with warm water. If necessary, use liquid gall soap, but not chemical cleaning agents, to preserve the wool's protective film.
