Afghan Art
Our Afghan rugs are quite simply a work of
art in their own right. Some are
influenced by Persian design, others have a more Oriental style – regardless of
what type of design draws your attention, you can be sure your Afghan rug has
been perfectly crafted by experts.
For example, the Afghan Mushwani Tribal rugs are
made in Western Afghanistan – they tend to use darker colours and they are
usually available in smaller sizes to suit a more compact room.
Kelims are still made using vegetable dyes
and their striking patterns complement modern neutral colour schemes as well as
period homes. The offer a flat tapestry
and predominantly feature colours of blue, green, yellow, and red in geometric
patterns
Meanwhile the Kaynak collection often feature
bigger and bolder designs in bright blue and red and their strong colour will
brighten any room. Many of these rugs
are available in a range of sizes and shapes.
Perfect Persian
For the more discerning homebuyer a Persian rug is the rug to have on the floor. The
art of carpet weaving in Iran originated more than 2,500 years ago. Throughout
Iran’s history, Persian rugs have been woven by both nomads and royal court producers
and there are hundreds of Persian rug types because they are named after the
tribe that created them or the area they were from.
Even though today’s rugs have been updated,
very little has changed in terms of the way they are made and in particular the
use of vegetable and plant dye.
These products are among the most expensive
rugs on the market, however, many are of exceptionally fine quality and designs
which often include patterns native to the area the rug was woven.
FrithRugs stock an amazing range of Persian
rugs in numerous sizes and designs and our experts are happy to guide you
through the buying process to ensure you select the rug that is right for you
and your home.
It’s no wonder that our stately homes,
palaces, museums and historic houses contain Persian rugs – they have always
been recognised as prestigious objects and if you enjoy the finer things of
life, then your home deserves one of these original works of art.
