Hand-knotted Contemporary Wool Persian Rug, Orley Shabahang, 4' x 4'

About the Item

Traditional Bakhtiari textiles dating back centuries actually provided the inspiration for this design, not the New York landmark from which it derives its name. The simple patterning of Empire State creates a stunning contrast and provides a bold statement for any space. Typically created in the neutral tones of natural, undyed sheep’s wool, the palette suits a wide range of interiors. Handknotted in pure wool. Orley Shabahang works house to house, village to village with our weavers, working to preserve the art of weaving as a cottage industry, and implementing ancient weaving methods to create the antiques of the future.

Kerman carpets were one of the first Persian rugs that made it to the Western markets. The rugs were most keenly distributed and sold throughout Europe soon after they surfaced. In the 16th century during the Safavid Dynasty, Kerman rugs first surfaced and were welcomed open arms by the wealthiest citizens of Persia. Around the 19th century, the village of Kerman was destroyed amidst civil strife. Most of Kerman's weavers escaped to the village of Laver in the north of the region where they resumed the creation of their rugs. Because of this mass migration, the Persian Kerman rugs are sometimes referred to as the Laver Kerman or Laver rugs...
