Extremely fine woven Persian silk carpet have silk pile on silk foundation. Approximately 750-800 knots per square inch. Qum weavers are also known for producing prayer rugs with elegant tree of life designs, as well as compartment designs derived from classical Persian garden carpets. Given their largely classical design repertory, Qum rugs tend to be finely woven with knot counts in the two hundreds and three hundreds. Forty to forty years ago Qum also became a production center for Persian all-silk rugs of exceptional fineness. Today weavings of Qum continue to be among the most respected and highly prized fine Persian rugs. The production of Qum rugs began in the early decades of the 20th century. Qum vintage rugs are identified as such because of their historical association with the Islamic holy city of Qum, where they were originally woven.

The fine materials with which Qum rugs are woven allow for weavers to draw exquisite, precise detail work throughout.

Persian Qum rugs are also often characterized by exceptional curve-linear lines. The color pallet most associated with Iranian Qum...
