Handmade carpet, which presents a red color field, on which floral themes are developed in rows in the form of synthetic motifs that give an attractive visual rhythm to the whole. The principle of visual cadence is repeated in the six borders, varied in terms of plant motifs and foliate patterns. Red, white, ochre, beige, blue and white tones predominate. These carpets are knotted in the holy city of Ghom, in central Persia. The material used to make them is silk, which makes them thin and compact. These carpets are very well elaborated and, in some cases, are decorated in great detail.
