Persian rugs are most famous for their creativity and firm structure. While most oriental carpets are antiques, the Qum rugs are only about a century old. These rugs’ design maintain a massive influence from the customer’s demand in the western markets. Whether it’s for your house or private collection, the Qum are one of the best Persian rugs for sale on the market.
Qum rugs are known by several monikers; sometimes they are referred to as Qum rugs, other times Ghom rugs or Ghum rugs. Qum, the namesake for the Qum rug, is considered to be a holy city that is located 100 km south of Tehran in the center of Iran. Rugs that have been woven in the past hundred years compete with those of the best quality rugs on the market today. Even though they are not traditionally a center of crafting, the Qum province is said to produce some of the finest Oriental rugs that are available today.
