55589 SILK ISFAHAN

Going back to the Safavid times in the seventeenth century, Isfahan rugs are said to be the some of the best rugs ever made in Persia. In a city of master weavers, inspiration came from Persia’s best achievements including dramatic vine scrolls and design elements from the city’s famous buildings. The Silk Isfahan is comprised of 100% natural silk on a silk foundation and very tight pile. At Artsy rugs, the Silk Isfahan is one of our specialties, some being made in Turkey and India as well as Iran, with Persian and Turkish Hereke designs used.
