Qum rugs originated from Qum, located in north central Iran, and is just south of Tehran. Since rug production did not begin in Qum until the 1930s, Qum doesn't have any traditional rug designs of its own. They have adapted designs from other regions and personalized them in a unique fashion. The patterns on Qum rugs are typically curvilinear, but landscapes and pictorial motifs recounting historical events are also popular. The color palette on Qum rugs will be predominantly red, blue, and ivory. | Qum rugs originated from Qum, located in north central Iran, and is just south of Tehran.
