Hundreds of years ago, a mystical way of carpet weaving began, beyond the art of the commonly known floral Persian carpets – emerging from the depths of the Zagros Mountains. Nomads of old Persia created this carpet artistry for their personal needs only, resembling beauty in a way that science fails to explain. Oftentimes, myths and stories are crafted on the pieces and are preserved over generations. Most themes stem from pre-islamic times, but they convey similarities to the works of the impressionistic art from Europe. A modernity long before modern trends had been invented.
