Tremendous Toudeshk - 1900s Antique Esfahan Rug - Persian CarpetSize: 4.7 x 7 ft.Toudeshk is east of the city of Isfahan, Iran on the road to Nain. Rugs woven there are rare with a limited number having been produced over the years. They are very high quality and tightly woven. Nain rugs are available in limited numbers, in limited sizes – since they were seldom woven before World War II. They were made in the central town of Nain, which lies in Central Iran about halfway between Tehran and Kerman, about 60 miles east of Esfahan. It is an ancient town which has not changed in 100 years. Nain had for generations produced a fine quality of handmade woolen cloth, which was used by Persians to make their fine cloaks. But when Persians began to wear European clothes, the cloth industry was hard hit. So the people in Nain turned to carpet weaving just before World War II. Great condition! No stains, no odor. Sides and ends original. Full pile. As shown in pictures.85450011 RJP
