These rugs are renowned for their exceptional quality, intricate designs, and subtle, yet rich colour palettes. Originating from the smaller village of Ravar, near Kerman, these rugs are crafted with a finesse that surpasses many other types of Persian rugs, making them highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.

Kerman Ravar rugs typically feature intricate floral motifs and elaborate central medallions, with designs that can include everything from garden scenes to detailed vases and hunting scenes. The artistry involved often displays a high level of skill in colour shading, known as ‘abrash’ in the rug-making world, which gives the rugs depth and complexity. The colour schemes are usually soft, employing pastels and lush, muted tones that contribute to their elegance and subtlety.

The wool used in Kerman Ravar rugs is of particularly high quality, soft and lustrous, often incorporating silk highlights that catch the light and add a luxurious sheen. The weave is fine and tight, making these rugs not only beautiful but also durable.

Historically, Kerman has been a centre of Persian rug production since the 15th century.
