This piece is quite open in its design compared to some Mohtasham Kashan rugs, often the weaver would weave extremely intricate patterns. A wonderful classical Persian rug in near perfect condition.
Kashan was a center of silk production since Safavid times and some of the best classical Persian silk rugs have been attributed to Kashan. At the end of the nineteenth century the weavers there began to produce high quality wool rugs and carpets as well, which continued the high standards of design and technique established in the classical era. The very best Kashan carpets are known as Mohtashan.
