Qom

Qom, in central Iran, is a relatively recent but highly influential center of Persian carpet weaving, emerging in the early 20th century. Qom carpets quickly gained prominence for their exceptional quality and refined artistry. They are woven with luxurious materials, often fine silk or silk-wool blends, and feature high knot density for extraordinarily detailed designs. Common motifs include intricate medallions, arabesques, floral patterns, and religious or architectural themes, rendered in luminous colors like ivory, blue, and rich reds. Despite their shorter history, Qom carpets have earned international recognition for elegance, precision, and sophistication. They are valued both as functional textiles and collectible works of art. Today, Qom continues producing exquisite carpets, symbolizing global craftsmanship and artistic excellence.
