About the Item

This tan, camel, brown, and cream Persian flat-weave uses ancient Persian weaving techniques that are rarely seen in flat-weave Persian carpets. The overall effect of the warm and neutral colors creates an overall impression that brings life to a room, without being the center of attention. Nicknamed “Horizon”, this rug gets its warm, neutral colors due to the undyed, natural shades of hand-spun wool. Measuring 4’9” x 6’10”, this piece is perfect for most room sizes and styles. 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. Orley Shabahang continues to create carpets using the same steps and techniques utilized to create the fine Persian antique rugs that enchanted the world for generations. We continue to create carpets that are hand-knotted with handspun-wool. The wool our weavers use is still washed, dried, and baked in the sun exactly how carpets were made over a century ago. These steps are taken to produce a carpet not only beautiful in appearance but exemplary in quality that will last for generations.

Bahram Shabahang

The art of Persian rug design has long been in Bahram Shabahang’s blood. Born in Iran but now based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Shabahang can trace his family history back to 16th-century Iran when an ancestor once oversaw carpet weavers in the workshop of King Tahmass Safavieh. Today, Shabahang’s Persian rugs and carpets are distinctly more modern in style, albeit produced by using ancient hand-woven techniques.

The story of Shabahang’s journey to becoming a prolific Persian rug designer begins back in 1972 in the bazaars of Isfahan, Iran. There, he met Geoffrey Orley, an American who was searching for “the world’s greatest carpets.” As Orley told Detroit Design magazine: “Somebody with a big Afro showed me a great carpet. He took me back to his home, and that was [Bahram] Shabahang.”

Having discovered that they shared an affinity for the distinctive artistry behind Persian rugs, Shabahang and Orley became lifelong friends and forged a business partnership, forming the rug and carpet company Orley Shabahang in 1973. At first, they focused mainly on importing and restoring antique Persian carpets, but by 2000, Shabahang wanted to create his own collection of modern and unique rug designs.

With the support of Orley, Shabahang designed several collections of new “Persian revival” carpets. Shabahang, who holds master's degrees in architecture and urban planning, relied on his drafting skills to create the Maps series of rugs, which featured maps of San Francisco, Rome, South America and Washington, D.C. Additional works include the Architecture collection and Persian, Indian and Caucasian rugs with minimalist, abstract and animal designs.

Shabahang’s rugs have been shown at galleries and exhibitions worldwide, including the 30th annual International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York in 2018. Publications such as Vogue, Town & Country and Architectural Digest have also featured his works.
