Persian Kilims are flatweaves including Gelim, Sumakh, Jajim, & Sofreh types. A thousand years ago, every town in Iran had its own distinct weaving style. Society was also a factor: elegant silk carpets signalled wealth and distinction, while Sufis and Dervishes (who shunned earthly materialism) wove coarser rugs. Among the Azerbaijani, Shahsevan and Qashqa'i nomads, slit-woven tapestry predominated. Over time, village motifs and styles intermingled. But whether made for kings or shepherds, both old and new Persian rugs remain treasured throughout the world for their ethnic splendor. Let Yurdan.com be your source of woven history!
