Persian Hamedan Rugs

Persian Hamedan rugs have typical patterns and sizes. The patterns and medallion vary varying with allover the patterns that occur. Among individual patterns, the Herati is the most common pattern. They usually use dominant colors with different nuances of indigo blue and madder red. Older Hamedan rugs can be very attractive products. In the city itself, Hamedan manufactures carpets with a considerably higher quality. They call them Shahr-Baff (Shahr=city, Baff=knot) which are similar in structure to the Bidjar carpets. But they are rare on the market today.
