Oriental handmade rug Qum - IRAN 150 x 55 cm, circa

Qum is the oldest holy city for Shiite Muslims. Evidence of human settlements in the area date back to the 5th millennium B.C. Therefore, the city abounds in history and splendid monuments such as the sanctuary of Masumeh  or the majestic mosque of Hazrate Fatemah.

Other Qum rugs are inspired by the panels of the Bakhtiaris: they are made more finely and with a greater wealth of details than the "originals." The boteh  and zir-i-sultan  have also become classic patterns in these rugs. As to colours, Qum rugs are made in a truly vast range that often includes very lively tones: red, blue, azure and cream are the most widely used for the field, although much softer shades were used in the s.
