Description
The small town of Varamin (Veramin) is situated in close proximity to the capital Teheran. The carpets knotted here are tightly woven, using high quality wool and dyes. They have a very distinct style and are known for their intricate designs. The carpets typically feature a central medallion surrounded by smaller medallions, all arranged in a symmetrical pattern. The colours used in Varamin carpets are often earthy and warm, with browns, reds and golds being the most common.
These carpets are highly sought after for their beauty and durability and will only increase in value with age.
