Introduction to traditional Persian style handmade wool carpet:

Historical origin: Persian carpet has been one of the famous handicrafts in Iran (formerly known as Persia) since ancient times, and its weaving and production history is at least 2,500 years. Persian carpets are famous for their excellent texture, simple and elegant patterns and exquisite craftsmanship.

Material selection: Persian carpets are mainly made of high-quality wool, especially the wool from lambs aged 8 to 14 months, which is the best quality and is called Kok. This kind of wool fiber is soft and slender with excellent texture. In addition, silk, cotton thread, etc. are also commonly used in the production of high-end Persian carpets.

Weaving technique: Persian carpets use hand-knotted weaving technology, which is divided into Turkish knot weaving and Persian knot weaving. Persian knot weaving is famous for its tight and strong weaving process. During the weaving process, artists will carefully weave wool threads of different colors together according to the design pattern to form complex and exquisite patterns.

Patterns and colors: The patterns of Persian carpets are mostly drawn from roses, tulips, Persian pears and other flowers and fruits that Arabs like, as well as tiles in mosques, stone carvings in palaces, natural scenery, birds and animals, flowers and trees, etc. The colors are rich and stable, and the dyes are extracted from natural plants and minerals, making the carpet colors fade over time.

Cultural symbol: Persian carpets are not only works of art for home decoration, but also a symbol of Persian culture. They carry the Iranian people's pursuit and imagination of beauty and are treasures in traditional Iranian handicrafts. Persian carpets are favored by collectors around the world for their unique artistic value and collection value.

Maintenance and collection: Persian carpets require regular maintenance to maintain their beauty and extend their service life. Correct cleaning and maintenance methods can keep the carpets colorful and soft. At the same time, due to their unique artistic charm and cultural value, Persian carpets are also the first choice of many collectors.

In summary, traditional Persian-style handmade wool carpets are highly respected for their long history, excellent materials, exquisite weaving skills, rich patterns and colors, and profound cultural connotations.
