Company Carpet House has shown at an exhibition in Moscow magnificent silk carpets from Iran

Eugeny Filimonov, owner CARPET HOUSE: “Our company was the first to bring modern designer rugs to Russia. It happened 10 years ago. Now we have 15 suppliers (we look for them all over the world and select them very carefully), each of which does something different. At the exhibition in Moscow, we showed a classic line - unique handmade Iranian carpets. There are several main centers of carpet weaving - Kum, Tabriz, Isfahan and Nain. We have carpets from Qom (they are the richest), as well as Tabriz (famous for their sophisticated pattern), Nain carpets (they have their own scale - sky blue in combination with sand shades) and, finally, carpets from Isfahan, characterized by strict elegance. Such carpets are considered to be works of art, in eastern countries they are treated as jewels and even inherited. ”
