Collection: Kirman
Without any doubt one of our best, and most sought after ranges, Kirman rugs are one of the traditional classifications of Persian carpets. Named after Kerman, which is both a city and a province located in south central Iran, these rugs are celebrated as being among the best. Kirman rugs are prized by collectors for many reasons, including a wide range of designs, a broad palette, use of natural dyes and fibers, great tensile strength and abrasion resistance, and expert color combinations.

Kerman (also known as Kirman), which is located in the southeast of Persia, is renowned for its rich and significant cultural heritage, as well as its exquisite handmade carpets. The finest wool is used to make Kirman rugs, which are individually handcrafted in limited batches. Every rug is inspected for faults at least twice - the first time while weaving and the second time to ensure that it will last for decades. The Persian weavers only apply the classic asymmetrical Persian knot to weave these rugs. Wool, silk, or a combination of the two can be used. The carpets' warp and weft are made of cotton, or pure silk in exceptionally fine pieces.
Three-woof carpets are the most common type of Kerman rug. The first and third wafts are typically thicker, whereas the middle waft is typically thinner. Some carpets, on the other hand, may have a thicker first woof and a narrower second woof. Weavers in Kerman's city centre primarily use the Persian knot, whereas in the village, both Turkish and Persian knots are equally common among the weavers.
The complexity of pattern and intricacy of Kirman rugs is unmatched in Persian weaving. Kerman carpets are distinguished from other rugs by their intricate, highly complex patterns that cover the entire surface area, necessitating a tremendous amount of time and effort on the part of the weavers.
They are extremely vivid and clear, made up of up to 30 different colours, making them one of the most vibrant Persian rugs in existence. These rugs are known for their brilliant dark or light burgundy reds, which look best when paired with neutrals like beige.
In addition, many carpets commonly feature medallions and floral patterns, as well as the tree of life design. Western patterns, such as stripes and various repetitive motifs, may be used in more modern versions, as well as more traditional vase and garden themes, animal shapes, and pictorial designs.
At Rugs Original we are proud to offer the Kirman Classic Print, the Circular Medallion, Centre Medallion and Open Field designs to your hearts delight. We have ivory gold, baby blue and pale green tones, as well as the more traditional red Kirman colour available in these ranges.
For many individuals, the larger sizes of Kirman rugs make them more attractive, although they also come in a variety of other sizes. Kirman rugs that are truly hand-knotted mature beautifully with time, becoming richer in colour and smoother to the touch as time passes.
Kirman rugs are susceptible to damage from exposure to direct sunshine and temperature fluctuations. You should keep your rug out of direct sunlight or in an area that is shielded from too severe fluctuations in climate. Kirman carpets benefit from regular vacuuming to remove dirt and other particles from the carpet.
