Summary

Rug weaving, an old tradition in Kerman, is one of the main industries of the city. The rugs produced in the city are renowned internationally. The oldest rug discovered in Kerman dates back 500 years, demonstrating the durabillity and quality of the rugs woven there. Also manufactured as in older times are other textile products made of cotton or wool, like shawls and delicate fabrics. Characteristic of Kerman rugs are the bright colours and the plentiness of beautiful flowers with garlands and medallions. The wool in Kerman is of very good quality with greasiness which makes it very bright.

Classic rugs: Rugs that are woven in urban centres in fixed workshops and looms(as opposed to nomads). Their designs are first done on paper by rug designers. These designs are strictly conducted by the weaver during the manufacturing. Even in these rugs, though there may be slight variations in weaving.
