The city of Kas-han has been a major center for rug production for centuries. The first known mention of these rugs dates back to the 16th century during the Safavid dynasty, when the city was a major center for the production of high-quality silk and wool rugs. These early Kas-han rugs were characterized by their fine weave, high knot density, and intricate patterns and motifs.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, Kas-han rug production reached its peak. The city was home to several royal rug workshops, which produced some of the most beautiful and expensive rugs in the world. These rugs were highly prized by the wealthy and powerful, and were often commissioned for use in royal palaces and other grand buildings.
Kas-han rugs are known for their intricate, rectilinear designs and motifs. These designs are characterized by rich, usually floral patterns woven in a harmonious and balanced manner. The most common motifs found in Kas-han rugs include the central tear-drop shaped medallion.
