Joshaghan
Joshagan rugs are made in the town of Joshagan and the nearby villages in the province of
Esfahan in north central Iran. Joshaghan rugs are woven on cotton foundation with wool pile
and the use of the Persian (asymmetrical) knot. Because of their high quality and limited
production, they are considered very good investments and are relatively expensive. The
higher quality items are sometimes sold under the names of the neighboring villages, Meimeh
or Murcecar. Joshaghan rugs are woven in both village and workshop settings. Joshaghan's
signature design consists of geometric floral motifs arranged in the shape of diamonds.
Sometimes geometric versions of the willow tree and gul hannai in diamond arrangements are
among the floral motifs. This design may be woven in an all-over or medallion-and-corner
layout. The background color of Joshaghan rugs could be either deep red or deep blue, and
the motifs are woven in colors of dark blue, light blue, white, green, beige, red and yellow.
The border is usually beige or blue.
