Persian Yazad (192788)

Yazd is a major city of South Eastern Iran. The closest other city is Kerman, but it has grown up in isolation and retains a conservatism which is reflected in its buildings and the culture of its people. One manifestation of this is the survival, in the city itself and in its hinterland, of the ancient Iranian religion, Zoroastrianism.The carpet production of Yazd is small but very varied. Few rugs reach the western markets. All sizes are made, though large pieces predominate. In terms of style they can be compared to Kerman production, in terms of colour to the production of Mashad and Kashmir as well as Kerman..FREE DELIVERY ON THIS RUG within UK mainland.
