Measures approximately 3'3" x 4'11". Hamadan rugs are hand-woven, high quality village rugs that are manufactured in and around the city of Hamadan in western Iran. Unlike most other rugs that refer to a particular type from one province or city, the term Hamadan actually refers to a wide variety of rugs that are woven across a vast region. The whole rug weaving region comprises of about 1500 separate and distinct villages in and around the city of Hamadan. Each of these villages produces on average 2 different styles of rugs, with some villages producing more than that. What this means is that there are about 3,000 different varieties of Hamadan rugs. What is particularly interesting is that although all of the rugs produced in these regions are called Hamadan rugs, the materials differ quite a bit because the wool has been obtained from sheep across so many different regions and the designs also differ because of the varying influences in each of the regions. With its ideal location right on a road junction in the valley of the ‘Kuh-i-Elwand’ in northwest Iran, Hamadan has long been an important rug weaving and rug marketing center with all of the villages and towns in the surrounding region producing different varieties and sizes of rugs and runners for export. The whole region for miles and miles around is dotted with a host of spinning mills, knotting shops, dye works and laundries that specialize in rugs. The wool used in the construction of Hamadan rugs is obtained
