The pink of cities, not tribes

It is the rarest of our colors, and the most Persian: the vast majority of our pink rugs come from Iran and are knotted, not flat-woven. This is not a modern dye pink but a soft shade, obtained by diluting the red, ranging from dusty pink to powder pink. In antique Hériz rugs, this tone comes from madder, the plant that also produces deep reds.

Where to find them

Tabriz rugs offer the widest selection, in floral compositions where pink softens the red and blue. They can also be found in Nahavand rugs and in a few silk Kashmirs, where the silk gives it a sheen that changes depending on the angle.

Pink is almost always paired with white or beige in our pieces, which makes it easier to place than one might think, even in a living room. All our pink rugs are handmade and sold with their certificate of origin.
