How Much is a Nasiri Kurdish?
Nasiri for sale on 1stDibs
Best known among Persian rug collectors for its high-quality luxury rugs, Nasiri specializes in hand-weaving contemporary and mid-century modern designs using old-world techniques.
Nasiri was founded by Nader Nasiri, who initially restored and sold antique Persian rugs from the local bazaar in his native Tehran. After moving to the United States, Nasiri founded his company, intending to introduce traditional Persian carpets to contemporary American life.
Although the firm started by focusing on time-honored Persian carpet-making techniques, Nasiri expanded its collection to include a wide spectrum of diverse weaving techniques. For instance, the company has a selection of Central Asian rugs with designs inspired by the ancient kilims (pileless, flatweave rugs) native to the Kurdish region of Afghanistan. Nasiri also has carpets made with hand-woven techniques found throughout Africa, Turkish rugs and Kalach flatweave rugs featuring Navajo and Scandinavian modern designs.
Nasiri’s Mazandaran collection features centuries-old weaving techniques used by Persian women in northeast Iran. The Mazandaran rug was only recently brought to widespread attention due to its being created solely for domestic use and as a traditional bridal dowry.
Nasiri’s rugs have been featured in numerous publications, including Interior Design, Elle Decor, Architectural Digest and Luxe. Its carpets are highly sought after by leading interior designers, architects and avid Persian rug collectors.
On 1stDibs, discover a range of contemporary Nasiri rugs and carpets.
Finding the Right rugs-carpets for You
Good antique rugs and vintage rugs have made their way into homes across the globe, becoming fixtures used for comfort, prayer and self-expression, so choosing the right area rug is officially a universal endeavor.
In modern usage, “carpet” typically denotes a wall-to-wall floor cushioning that is fixed to the floor. Rugs, on the other hand, are designed to cover a specific area and can easily be moved to new locations. However, the terms are interchangeable in many parts of the world, and, in the end, it won’t matter what you decide to call it.
It’s well known that a timeless Persian rug or vintage Turkish rug can warm any interior, but there are lots of other styles of antique rugs to choose from when you're endeavoring to introduce fresh colors and textures to a bedroom or living room.
Moroccan Berber rugs are not all about pattern. In fact, some of the most striking examples are nearly monochrome. But what these rugs lack in complexity, they make up for in brilliant color and subtle variation. Moroccan-style interiors can be mesmerizing — a sitting room of this type might feature a Moroccan rug, carved wooden screens and a tapestry hung behind the sofa.
Handwoven kilim rugs, known for their wealth of rich colors and unique weaving tradition, are pileless: Whereas the Beni Ourain rugs of Morocco can be described as dense with a thick surface or pile, an authentic kilim rug is thin and flat. (The term “kilim” is Turkish in origin, but this type of textile artistry is practiced all across the Balkans, throughout the Arab world and elsewhere.)
When it comes to eye-catching floor coverings, the distinctive “medallion” pattern of Oushak rugs has two types of rounded shapes alternating against a rich red or blue background created with natural dyes, while the elaborate “star” pattern involves large eight-pointed shapes in diagonal rows alternating with diamonds.
If you’re looking for something unexpected, find a runner rug that pops in your hallway or on your stairs. Dig for dazzling geometric patterns in our inventory of mid-century modern rugs and carpets, which includes works designed by the likes of Swedish textile masters Märta Måås-Fjetterström, Marianne Richter and other artisans.
Carpets and rugs have been around for thousands of years. Prehistoric humans turned to animal skin, wool and fur to craft simple fabrics to soften hard terrain. A 2016 study suggests that "cave lions" were hunted for exactly this purpose, and that decorating your cave with their pelts may have conferred strength and prestige. Although many of these early textiles are still in existence, tracing their precise origins is difficult. Carpets quickly became such a valuable trade commodity that the weavings could easily travel far from their places of origin.
The oldest known carpet was found in southern Siberia. (It may have traveled there from Persepolis in Iran.) For the flat-weave floor rugs crafted by Native Americans, cotton was the primary material before sheep’s wool was introduced in the 16th century. In Europe, carpet-making was fundamental to folk art, and Asian carpets imported to European countries were at one time considered a precious luxury and not intended to remain permanently on the floor.
With the variety of area rugs and carpets rolled out for you on 1stDibs — a collection that includes traditional, modern, minimalist rugs and other coverings of all kinds — things will be looking up whenever you’re looking down.
