The World's Finest Rug

Have you ever wondered what the world's most fine rug looks like?
Well, here it is.
This rug, named for the city Persepolis, happens to be the most finely hand-crafted oriental rug in existence. It has 4265 knots per square inch. To put this into perspective, 300 KPSI is considered fine. This masterpiece took 3 master-trained oriental rug weavers over 14 years to weave.

You won't find this rug in our collection, of course, but this rug signifies the kind of inspiration that is brought about by oriental rugs. Three weavers were dedicated enough to sit down and weave this over the course of 14 years. Now that's dedication.
