Kerman Persian carpets
Filigree weaves, delicate patterns and an incomparable color palette.
Kerman carpets are produced in the city of Kerman and some neighboring villages in the southeast of the Iran manufactured. The weavers of this region are extremely skilled and talented, producing carpets with a variety of intricate patterns.

In southern Iran, in the exotically named desert oasis Dast-e-Lut, lies the city of Kerman with a population of about a quarter of a million.
Founded in the 4th century, the city was an important destination when trade between India and Iran was thriving centuries ago.

Today it has earned a place of honor in the carpet industry, having been home to a particularly rare and exceptionally beautiful work of art, the Kerman carpet, since at least the 15th century.

The curvilinear pattern dominates in most carpets, closely followed by another popular pattern, the famous painterly Kerman carpets, grouped in a separate category of 'painterly' patterns.

WHAT IS A KERMAN CARPET?
Carpets and rugs give every room the necessary cosiness. The ornate and filigree designs are a true marvel to behold. Each Oriental or Persian rug offers its owners unmatched durability and comfort. A first example that fully embodies these characteristics are the Kerman carpets, one of the highest quality carpets that Persia has to offer.

History of Kerman carpets
Kerman, located in the desert of southern Persia, was an important center for trade and weaving. Kerman rugs were among the first Persian rugs to reach western markets. Soon after their appearance, the carpets were distributed and sold with great interest throughout Europe.

In the 16th century, during the Safavid dynasty, the first Kerman carpets appeared and were welcomed with open arms by the wealthiest citizens of Persia. Around the 19th century, Kerman village was devastated amidst civil wars. Most of Kerman's weavers fled to the village of Laver in the north of the region, where they resumed making their carpets. Because of this mass migration, Persian Kerman carpets are sometimes also referred to as Laver-Kerman or Laver carpets.

knotting technique
Kerman rugs were woven by a group of master craftsmen who were known for their excellent weaving skills. Thanks to their incredible skills, the Kerman carpet was given an extremely robust and constructive finish.

The craftsmen of the Kerman carpet had a special weaving technique. There were three turns for each knot - the first and last having far greater tension than the one in the middle. In this way, the robust and well-constructed surface was brought to life. The knots can be described as asymmetric tight Persian knots. The knots in these rugs averaged 120 to 800 knots per square inch, making these rugs denser than any other Persian rug. A Kerman carpet took over a year to complete.

texture and materials
The basis of the Kerman rug consists of cotton and silky Carmania wool, which gives it a soft and stable texture.

They are also known as "vase rugs" because of the intricate floral designs and large palmettes that cover the entire rug frame. They are usually made in the traditional colors of red and blue. The carpet's dyes are used to create a soft and subtle hue in the pattern design; in addition, Kerman carpets are usually lightly colored to emphasize their elegance.

Where are Kerman carpets made?
Kerman rugs are known for their distinctive designs and intricate imagery derived from Persian and European themes. Traditional Kerman patterns include the Shah Abbasi medallion and corners, garden, vase, tree of life, hunting and animals, all-over boteh, all-over flowers and stripes.

The most well-known design of Kerman rugs is the vase or boteh design, which consists of an all-over pattern of vases or botehs scattered across the rug on a background of floral and palmette motifs. This very vibrant and attractive pattern is very popular with homeowners and carpet collectors.

Two other styles of Kerman carpets that showcase the superior craftsmanship of these master weavers are the range of exquisitely curvy all-over motifs and the intricate central Kerman medallions and corners with ornate borders.

More modern designs consist of Aubusson or Koran medallions and corners with a simple, open field. The open field is an important distinguishing feature of modern Persian Kerman rugs, designed primarily for the western market.

The colors of Kerman carpets
The Kerman weavers' love of color is evident in the rich use of color in their creations. Between 15 and 30 colors are used for each rug, with a preference for bright and bold shades of magenta, blue and golden saffron. The most commonly used tones in antique carpets are red-blue and deep red, as well as orange and turquoise.

In sharp contrast are the more modern carpet weavers who use more pastel colors such as champagne, lime green, blue grey, pink and beige.

Whether light or pastel, the key feature of all these rugs is the even distribution of colors, achieved through the unique process of dyeing the wool.

Construction of Kerman carpets
Kerman weavers have earned a well-deserved reputation as skilled craftsmen, producing quality fabrics of excellent construction and workmanship. The carpets are woven from high-quality Carmania wool. Averaging about 8 feet by 10 feet, these rugs are larger than most other types of Persian rugs, although some weavers have preferred to weave smaller rugs.

The rugs are tightly woven with the asymmetrical Persian knot on a firm cotton ground. Some weavers employed an unusual construction technique that resulted in a wavy surface, giving these rugs an extra dimension. The average number of knots per square inch varies from a minimum of 120 to as high as 800, which is denser than the average carpet.

Antique Kerman rugs are known for their fine weave, delicate patterns and incomparable color palette. Many Kerman rug owners end up using their prized pieces as wall decorations to protect them from shoe damage.

Popularity of Kerman carpets
The popularity of Kerman rugs is due to several reasons.

On the one hand, the high-quality wool available in the region, the so-called Carmania wool, which is considered to be very durable and shiny, is used to create these masterpieces.

In addition, these rugs hold a special place in the hearts of collectors because they feature a wide range of designs, ranging from a central medallion depicting animals, garden panels, vases, the tree of life, hunting scenes and elaborate paintings.
