Story Behind the Art: Qum rugs, produced in the holy city of Qum since the early 20th century, have achieved a reputation as some of the most exquisite Persian rugs despite their modern origins. Crafted in pure silk or silk-and-wool blends, they boast extraordinary knot densities, enabling highly precise and detailed designs. Common motifs include intricate floral medallions, prayer niches, garden scenes, and delicate arabesques, rendered with jewel-like clarity. Many Qum rugs are signed by their master weavers, adding to their collectible value. Known for their luminous sheen, luxurious textures, and fine detailing, Qum rugs embody both the classical traditions of Persian weaving and the sophistication of modern artistry, making them prized Oriental masterpieces worldwide.
