The history of Persian Carpet-a culmination of artistic magnificence - dates back to 2,500 years ago.
The Iranians were among the pioneer carpet weavers of the ancient civilizations, having achieved a superlative degree of perfection through centuries of creativity and ingenuity.
The skill of carpet weaving has been handed down by fathers to their sons,
who built upon those skills and in turn handed them down to their offspring as a closely guarded family secret. To trace the history
of Persian carpet is to follow a path of cultural growth of one of the greatest civilizations the world has ever known.
From being simple articles of need, floor and entrance coverings to protect the nomadic tribesmen from the cold and damp, the increasing beauty of the carpets found them new owners – kings and noblemen, who looked
upon them as signs of wealth, prestige and distinction.
