Qum is an important city in northern Iran, just south of Tehran (150 km) and east of the great salt lake, Dasht-e Kavir.

It is the second holiest city after Mashad and an important pilgrimage place for Shiite Muslims worldwide. It is a modern industrial city with over a million inhabitants and a petroleum product distribution centre.

Rug weaving began in Qum in the 1930s. They are renowned for producing some of Iran's finest Persian rugs and carpets. They are of high quality with excellent materials and are of solid construction. Knot density can range from 300,000 to 1,200,000 per square metre.

They can be made of wool on a cotton foundation or silk on silk. Sometimes the wool rugs have silk highlights. The patterns they use include the Boteh or Paisley design, the Bakhtiar garden design, hunting scenes or central medallion. Skilled weavers can weave 8000 knots per day on the width of one metre or 8mm per day. A rug measuring 150 x 100cm in the fine quality of 1,200,00 per metre can take a year to make.

When buying online, the company's provenance and the rug are worth considering. We are a family business with over 60 years of experience selling rugs. We have an unrivalled reputation and pride ourselves in customer service. We welcome visits to the Tewkesbury shop. Alternatively, we are pleased to assist with-online enquiries by email or telephone.

Remember, these handmade rugs are unique and special; owning one is something you can enjoy for many years. I recommend buying a handmade carpet with the best natural fibre, wool.

We recommend the use of an underlay with this product:
Foxi-underlay to provide grip to stop handmade rugs from moving

For uneven surfaces, we would recommend our Felt underlay:
Felt underlay for uneven floors
