Souf

Welcome to the intricate beauty of Souf rugs

Souf rugs trace their origins to central Persia, especially the weaving center of Kashan, from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. These rare luxury carpets use a unique hybrid technique: a flat-woven base with raised pile motifs for a three-dimensional, embossed effect, often in fine silk or wool with intricate floral, medallion, or pictorial designs. Prized for their textured elegance and light-catching highlights, they represent a sophisticated evolution in Persian rug craftsmanship.
