Best Persian Rugs
Signed Oriental Rugs from the best
Whether new or old, a hand knotted Persian rug featuring a signature is not necessarily more valuable. However, it is important to note in many cases signed rugs from renown hand knotted Persian rug manufacturers add desirability, and are often more appealing. Rugs are largely an unbranded item, although many antique Oriental rug dealers have attempted to attribute unmarked carpets to specific workshops, such as Jalili or Mohtashem. Unfortunately, many of these carpets are not only unsigned, but historically, there are no verifiable records of such rug producers. Many of these categorized rugs are considered "marketing ploys" to spin long tails from.
What you should know as the buyer or collector: Carpets for which do bear identifiable signatures (especially antique) or trademarks for which may be traced back many decades or perhaps centuries in rug weaving are clearly set apart from the unmarked rug, and are of a more unusual breed.
Listed below are a few of the most distinguished names in Persian rug history to have signed their carpets. A few of these manufacturers have been producing as recently as the last 10 years.
Antique Kerman: Costikyan, Constantian Brothers, Dilmaghani, Kermani, OCM
Nain: Habibian
Isfahan: Seirafian
Meshed: Amoghli, SABER
Sarouk: Dilmaghani (Crown)
Semi Antique Kerman: Arjemand, Atiyeh, Dilmaghani (Crown)
Semi Antique Tabriz: PETAG, Dilmaghani (Crown, Signature or combination)
"Antique" 100+ years of age (Pre-1910),
"Semi Antique" (~1911-1960)
The Dilmaghani Company is one of the longest producing manufacturers and importers of hand knotted Persian and Oriental rugs. Their carpets are distinguished by very fine quality standards, and for select production, a signature or trademark crown woven at one end of the carpet. Of specific specialty, the Dilmaghani company is particularly well known for their exclusive Kerman rugs in exceptional quality, size, colors and motifs from the early 20th century through mid-1950's.
The Dilmaghani family's history and roots in the Oriental rug trade date back over 150 years to Kerman and Tabriz, Persia (now Iran). The family business was started by Mehdi Dilmaghani's great uncle and, later, carried on by his father and uncle. Today, Mehdi's son, Dennis Dilmaghani, carries on the more than century and a half tradition of fine hand knotted Oriental rug manufacturing, production and importing.
