Persian Carpets & Rugs
Kashmir and Persian rugs encompass hand-knotted carpets, chain-stitch (aari) wool rugs, and flat-weave kilims — textiles in which every knot or stitch is placed by hand.
Hand-knotted carpets from Kashmir follow the same fundamental technique as Persian weaving: individual knots are tied around warp threads on a vertical loom, row by row.
At Soznique, we curate rugs suited to European interiors: generous proportions, restrained palettes, and construction quality that ensures decades of use.
