Most city carpet designers follow inherited forms, repeating familiar patterns across generations. But there are always a few who push beyond the expected, who create something new while still honouring tradition. This Kashan rug is one such piece.

Its design reflects the regional style yet takes an imaginative turn—the layout is freer, the forms more fluid, and the palette of warm autumnal tones subtly shifts away from the norm. It’s a rare instance where design, colour, and composition align so well to make something that is both rooted in heritage and distinctly original.

This rug is not just a decorative piece—it’s a testament to the creative freedom of its designer, a quiet but confident break from convention that gives it a timeless charm.
