Taban rugs are traditional rugs from Iran, more precisely from the Tabas region in Khorasan. They are part of the so-called village or nomadic rugs, hand-made by families. Made of natural wool on a cotton warp, this rug is not only a decorative object: it carries with it a tradition and a heritage.

Origin: Turkey

These rugs were traditionally offered as a wedding dowry. Owning a Taban rug in the family represented wealth, craftsmanship, and the protection of the new home. Offering a Taban rug to a bride symbolized prosperity, security, and blessings for her future life.

The patterns and colors often vary according to villages and families, but they all tell a story related to life, nature, and local traditions. Designs can include symbols of fertility, protection, and happiness.

The weaving is entirely handmade, and each rug is unique. The natural wear of time gives old rugs a warm and authentic patina, highly prized in contemporary decoration.
