-==History==
-With a history over 1000 years old, the city of Kerman is located in the province of Kerman in the central south-eastern area of Iran. Being granted one of the first royal workshops is one point of interest of this city’s history. A professional weaver may take years to complete a rug, and only uses the famous Persian asymmetrical knot. Materials are wool, silk, or a combination of both, which is left with a long pile. Cotton is a typical foundation except in fine pieces when silk is used. Pale pastel colors are typical, while patterns such as medallion and border, with a single, solid field color, as well as floral designs can both be seen. These can include tree-of-life, paneled “garden” pattern or hunting scenes. They are washed to give a glow that is typical of a Kerman.
