	NEW PERSIAN RUGS
	CARPETS KNOTTED FROM THE END OF WWII UP TO THE ISLAMIC REVOLUTION IN 1979
	The search for detail through a meticulous study of the pattern, the matching of innumerable shades of color and, most importantly, great knotting density are the common characteristics of these pieces. The extremely refined examples knotted in this period have several weft threads of different thicknesses, skillfully beaten with an iron comb; carpets knotted using this technique are extraordinarily soft. The best-known carpets are Isfahan, Nain, Qom, Kirman, Kashan, Tabriz. They take their names from their places of production, also famous for the use of silk. Unfortunately, they are difficult to find. Be careful! Large scale production of these articles began with the settlement of the Islamic Republic and, starting in 1982, an enormous quantity of carpets of questionable quality at progressively decreasing prices flooded the European market.
