Enhance Your Floor Space at Home Shop at These Persian Carpets in KL

There are plenty of ways to decorate your floor space creatively. Apart from indoor plants and floor lamps, you can opt for the famous Persian carpets. This Iran-handmade carpet is deemed a work of art because of its rich colours and intricate designs using woven natural wools, silk, and vegetable dyes.

Persian carpets have three types: city, village, and tribal. The “city” is considered to be of the highest quality out of the three because it is created by expert weavers, with designs inspired by the tile works found in mosques or garden palaces.

The village and tribal carpets, on the other hand, are made by the creative hands of families, who then sell them in order to generate additional income for their households. The patterns of vases and geometric designs served as inspiration for both carpets.

It’s quite hard to choose the right Persian carpet for your home because there are different colours, materials, and designs available on the market. To help you with your carpet shopping, here are some carpet stores in Kuala Lumpur you should check out.
