Omar Khayyam is the rock star of Persian literature and poetry. The writer, mathematician, philosopher and astronomer was one of the greatest minds of his time and his works remain influential today. This Persian Renaissance man was born on May 18, 1048, in the city of Nishapur, which is located in the province of Khorassan.


There, Khayyam established and managed an astronomical observatory. For nearly two decades, Khayyam worked in the city of Isfahan and maintained close connections with Malik-Shah. His astronomical and mathematical works and his contribution to the Jalali calendar are among his most well-known innovations.
However, after the sultan’s death, Khayyyam fell from favor and embarked on a pilgrimage to Mecca followed by extensive travels. Khayyyam’s life frequently intersects with Persia’s greatest cities, places where pictorial carpets featuring scenes from the Rubaiyat were later created.
Although he wasn’t recognized as a poet during his life, “The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam” has become a definitive example of Persian literature. Even today, whenever a jug of wine and a shaded bower are mentioned, the world thinks of this literary legend.

The hunting scene rug design is an ancient weaving style. For more than one thousand, three hundred years, Persian hunting stories were told orally. As hunting was such an imperative tradition to Persians, it became a heritage that they needed to protect and preserve. In 500 B.C, hunting scenes were put on one of the oldest rugs: the Pazyryk rug. This treasure was found in the Scythian prince’s tomb.

Then the production took the lead again from 1500s, particularly because of the Safavid royals and leaders who resided in Mughal, India, and Persia. They loved flamboyant hunting scene rugs that depicted their favorite sport and leisure.

Silk is lovely and posh in appearance. And since most hunting scene Persian rugs were made for the royals, weavers used silk to create the finest, elegant designs.

This beautiful master piece Persian Rug is pure silk and weaved in the city called Qum(Qom). Qum is a holly city in Iran and it is known for it's silk rugs around the world. The city is located in the central northern part of IRAN and has very dry weather very close to the capital city. Qum(Qom) Silk are among the best known and most expensive silk rug around the world.

Fortunately, these spectacular rugs are produced in cities and countries around the world, so everyone can enjoy the beauty regardless of their personal style. The medallion and corner composition featured in Persian rugs has become an archetype of formality and elegance. Central Medallion design rugs are depicted in a countless variety of styles and configurations.

The circular medallions inspired by the geometric domes of Persia’s most famous mosques are precisely constructed and representative of the region’s elegant style.
