Oriental carpets
The fascination of oriental carpets lies in the skilful craftsmanship of hand-knotting and the use of exquisite materials. Experienced artisans dedicate themselves to creating these unique and highly prized works of art with painstaking manual labour. A decisive indicator of their quality is the knot density, with a higher density indicating finer craftsmanship and increased value. The precise insertion of individual knots forms the characteristic pile of the carpet. Oriental carpets of this type are made in various countries in the Middle East and Central Asia, including Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and other regions.
Origin
Our oriental rugs from Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan are recognised worldwide for their masterful craftsmanship and artistic designs. These countries have a long and impressive history of carpet making. Persian carpets, famous and named after different regions, stand alone. Afghan and Pakistani carpets, on the other hand, often bear the names of their places of production and are characterised by the successful combination of traditional oriental flair with modern design.
Materials
Oriental carpets are made using a variety of materials, the choice of which has a significant influence on the quality, durability and aesthetic appearance of the carpet. Our rugs are mainly made from natural materials such as cotton, sheep's wool or silk. Each region uses its own characteristic materials, which give the rugs individual qualities and cultural characteristics. The result is a versatile range of rugs characterised by unique patterns, colours and textures.
