Hamadan is one of the oldest towns on Earth. The centre of a fertile mountainous sheep-rearing topography, it is one of the great Persian Rug regions. Hamadan houses endless history, the tombs of Esther and Mordechai etc.
The city is stretched around a star-shaped square which has preserved its beautiful style of architecture, six avenues diverge from the angles of the star. Hamadan has been developed and renovated to a great extent in recent years but there are still old neighbourhoods with nostalgic besides its large modern streets and beautiful parks.
The distinguishing feature of Hamadan rugs is the weave. It has just one thick weft per row of knots, giving an unmistakable “look” to the back. Refer “ONE WOMAN ONE WEFT” Tad Runge ISBN 0-615-12038-5.

Or visit our showroom at 11 Byron St, Bangalow.
We photograph our rugs in real rooms and natural light, so you see them as they are. Screens vary, so if you’d like a video or more photos before you decide, just ask.
Preferably sweep with a stiff straw broom. Vacuum only lightly, in the direction of the pile, not against the grain.
Don’t be too precious. Our rugs are pure top-grade wool and virtually indestructible; there are many antique rugs still going strong today. Just stay natural, with no modern chemical cleaners or machines, and return your rug to us for a complete wash every few years.
PS Some rugs enjoy a picnic!
Yes. Call ahead and we’ll have it ready for you at our Bangalow showroom, 11 Byron St.
