Tafresh carpet: Tafresh carpets are woven in a small city in the western part of Persia, in central Iran. They are very similar to Hamedan carpets but much better in quality and technique. Tafresh rugs usually have a dense, thick pile made of high quality wool, giving a beautiful sense of softness. The small sized pieces are often older in age, than the larger ones. The Tafresh carpets are usually red with a pendant in the center, or with repetitive motifs, spread all over the surface. They are woven with very good quality hair. Their designs are mostly geometric, while the natural colors, such as red, ochre and olive green are quite common in use.
