Antique Persians

The Antique Persians are the crown jewels in our collection, and we are awed by their beauty and significance every day. This range of antique carpets are sourced from original owners, as well as royal families and individual collectors from around the world, and carefully preserved by experts. Some of our Antique Persians are 50 years or more, while antique carpets are over 100 years old, but they are all so long-lasting that they can be passed down to the next generation to cherish.

These Antique Persians hail from regions as far as Isfahan in Iran and are made by hands as diverse as the weavers of Shah Abbas’ reign in the 16 th century, or the skilled prisoners of Emperor Akbar’s reign who made the ‘Jail Rugs’. The famous Dabeer Kashan, Mohtasham Kashan and Tabriz rugs of Persia are a particularly cherished part of our collection. Each of these antique carpets comes with a story that flows through the fingers of its maker, a technique that locates it in history, and a beauty that is all its own.

These antique carpets come with care instructions that are not hard to follow and will extend their life and appeal. Our curated range of Antique Persians are sure to be conversation pieces in any home and will bring joy to your soul for years to come.
