An Introduction to Handmade Persian and Oriental Rugs

Traditional Eastern art forms blend form, decoration, and function within an integrated whole. Where better do beauty and function converge than in a hand-woven rug?

From the simple nomadic floor covering to the sophisticated silk carpets of the Safavid court, rugs have served as functional art pieces for centuries.

The craft of weaving has been passed down through generations, preserving ancient symbols, motifs, and techniques. At Noor Oriental Rugs, we are dedicated to celebrating this history and helping you understand the origin and pedigree of your unique piece.
