Initially, wool carpets were woven, and later silk carpets began to be produced. Qom is also famous as a silk producing region, and most of the carpets made there today are 100% silk. 　Due to its short history, it is not bound by traditional patterns. It has quickly grasped the trends of overseas markets and the currents of the times, and by combining the techniques and design elements of various regions, it has created unique designs, thus giving birth to a new style of Persian carpet. 　It fuses Persian traditional beauty with sophisticated European sensibilities, harmonizing well with modern living environments. It is highly popular in Europe and America, and is the most familiar region in Japan. Back
