Rug Kerman (also "Kirman") is one of the traditional classifications of Middle Eastern rug. Kerman is both a town and a province in south central Iran.
The Kerman rugs are appreciated for a wide range of designs, a wide range of colors, the use of dyes and natural fibers, great tensile strength and abrasion and great color combinations. The typical production used an asymmetric node on a basis of cotton, but rare examples include threads of silk or silk-mixed and mixed silk yarns to wool.
The robust Kerman rugs are made in the south-eastern Iran, and are characterized by the red color in the center that branches in a beautiful medallion. These Middle Eastern rugs are of high quality, sometimes completely covered in motifs in different colors, often with floral decorations. Over the years, these rugs have become highly prized by the royal courts around the world.
Kerman was a major center for the production of high quality rugs at least the fifteenth century.
In the seventeenth century Kerman manifested designers more inventive and their weaving techniques became a sophistication never before seen in other parts of the Middle Eastern Empire. For example, the weavers had learned to place their frames so that they were on two different levels of cotton warps. They stuck then the wool wefts, leaving some '' other narrow and sinuous, giving an undulating finish instantly recognizable on the surface of the rug.
In the eighteenth century, some authors considered the rugs of the province, in particular of Shiphtan, the best Middle Eastern rugs, partly because of the better quality of wool produced in the region, known as "Lana Carmania".
Nadir Shah and Nasser al-Din Shah of Kerman rugs commissioned in the eighteenth century.
In the nineteenth century, the city of Kerman had a long history of urban laboratories, very fine wool, master weavers and a reputation for artistic excellence of the projects.
Technique
May Beattie has defined seven classes of Kerman rugs and identified a unique structure called the "pot" technique characterized by three strokes of the plot between rows of knots.
The first and the third are typically of wool and high voltage, while the second, low voltage, is normally made of silk or cotton. The warp is markedly shifted and the Middle Eastern knot is open to the left. This technique separates the Kerman rugs from the Safavid period (1501-1722) and later (1722-1834). Most Middle Eastern rugs, on the contrary, used the "turkish knot".
The process of dyeing of yarns for Kerman rugs takes place while the wool staple and is still before spinning, allowing you to get a uniform color. The palette of Kerman rugs is as brilliant as it varies. The tones vary from beige to blue and magenta in a more golden tone and saffron.
In describing a historical rug as this ancient Kirman, it is evident the qualitative thickness and the beauty of the artifact. Whether it's one of the most important manufacturers shutters fine dall'annodatura and design complex, central coat of arms and fully in class 1 in Lana.
