Although it is located between Yazd and Nain, its influence comes primarily from Kashan.

The carpet is made form kork wool and comes from the city of Tabriz
Caucasian rug influences are also strongly felt resulting in displays of bold geometric designs in primary colours
Weaving began in the religious shrine city of Qum in central Persia in the 1930s
but the traditional and most typical is that of the octagonal elephant's foot (Bukhara) print
bringing you and generations to come much pleasure
The centre of the rug is a large vase containing an amazing spray of flowers that completely fill the field of the carpet
Kashmar rugs originate from Kashmar
but they are also any other number of shapes and motives in vases and every now and then as a bunch
This background has led to the inclusion of regional influences on Afshar weaving
This carpet is one that represents joy and happiness
although a lot of changes have been made to the designs
