Antique Persian Red Gold Navy Manchester Wool Kashan Small Area Rug, circa 1920s

About the Item

Manchester wool Kashan carpets are given such name in attribution to Manchester London, where the wool used in production was imported from Australia refined, then later exported to kashan for weaving. This is a very special grade of wool from the merino sheep, which was quite costly to acquire and only reserved for very fine weavings. The result of which is an incredibly strong and resilient pile with a high sheen and near silk-like appearance. Manchester wool Kashan carpets in very fine condition are highly sought after. This is a fine example of a Manchester wool Kashan carpet dating from the 1920s and measuring 4.2 x 6.10 ft.

    Situated on the edge of the desert, Kashan experiences seasonally intense heat, winds and bright sunlight. It has served as an important political and artistic center throughout the major periods of Persian history and is regarded as a major weaving center for antique Persian rugs. Kashan is known for not only silk and textiles, but for decorative ceramic tiles. Although Kashan rugs are known to have been woven since at least the Sassanian Empire, 224 to 642 CE, there are two major periods of carpet production. The first was during the Safavid period in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in royal workshops and commercial weaving centers. The second was during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries under Qajar rule, primarily for export but also for use by the Persian upper class.
