Evidence suggests that thousands of years ago, nomadic tribesmen between Eurasia and Mongolia were the first to create pile carpets.

When considering a rug for your home, there are a number of reasons why you might decide upon hand knotted Oriental rugs or handmade Persian rugs instead of machine-made ones. Quality is the most important consideration. Handmade rugs are much more durable than mass-produced machine made rugs. Handmade rugs are usually made with natural materials such as cotton, wool or silk. These natural fibers last longer and release no harmful gasses into the environment over time. And since each rug is hand-knotted, each strand has been tied individually for greater combined strength and consistency  Characteristic Tabriz rugs are woven in the large city of Tabriz and numerous small surrounding village in the Northwest section of Iran, which has been one of the foremost centers of rug weaving for hundreds of years. The weavers here are among the fastest and most skilled in Iran. Weaving in Tabriz region can vary greatly in quality, common qualities of Tabriz rugs range from 50 to 500 KSPI. In fine quality Tabriz rugs thin white cotton is used for the warp and weft threads. The wool used for the pile is of excellent quality and trimmed short. Small amounts of silk are often used to accentuate certain designs and motifs. In rugs of medium to coarse quality a thick cotton warp is used and for the pile heavy wool of medium length is used. Today, silk and pure silk rugs are woven in different designs and as well as the Medallion and over-all floral deigns. In Tabriz rugs, a wide variety of designs are woven in both curvilinear and rectilinear formats: The medallion, over-all floral, picture and mahi (Herati). One of the new designs (Mahi Tabriz) is composed of small Herati motifs repeated throughout the field of the rug. Many new patterns were as well created. Most common design is the medallion, which were then divided into four and placed in the four corners of the field. In Tabriz rugs a wide variety of color combinations are used.
