Vintage Kashmar Lachak Toranj Persian Rug
ABOUT THIS PIECE
Handwoven from handspun wool on a durable cotton foundation in the city of Kashmar in northeastern Persia. This rug features an iteration of the famous Lachak Toranj motif.
Kashamr rugs are known to depict the beauty of heaven. They are among the most popular hand knotted oriental rugs and are highly sought after by rug collectors and enthusiasts. The kashmar rug is a rare rug that is no longer manufactured in large quantities. These rugs are one-of-a-kind, handcrafted by master craftsmen and women in the province of Khorassan in northeastern Iran.
The Kashmars are extremely durable and will last a very long time, becoming more elegant with age.
The wool used in Kashmar carpets is very lustrous and soft and is exclusive to the people of Khorassan. This fine wool, along with beautiful designs and genius craftsmanship, combine to produce these exquisite carpets.
