New Teheran
This one-of-a-kind piece in grey and dark blue unites traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. The knot density of approx. 200,000 knots per m² makes the painstaking workmanship visible – right down to the finely worked details. At 248 × 174 cm it is perfectly at home as a living room rug. It also looks splendid under a dining table for four to six people. The harmonious colouring and the distinctive texture give any room an exclusive, homely atmosphere. A rug of this quality is far more than a furnishing item – it is a piece of traditional textile art with a character of its own and lasting value.

Origin
Contemporary aesthetics meet Oriental tradition – for this New Teheran rug we drew our inspiration from the traditional patterns of Persian Sarough rugs.Sarough is one of Iran's best-known rug-knotting regions. Saroughs are famous for their floral Sultanabad designs. The delicate tendrils seem to branch out almost endlessly and are held in check only by the surrounding border.
We have reworked the traditional pattern templates and, above all, arranged the colours in a completely new way. The result is a fusion of traditional Oriental rug design and modern European aesthetics. With our New Teheran rugs we set out to meet the trends of European interior design, playing freely with the conventions of traditional rug knotting.
Material
The pile of this New Teheran is made from a hard-wearing blend of wool and viscose. Viscose (also known as rayon or acetate silk) is generally obtained from cellulose, a natural material, and therefore from wood. In India, the cellulose pulp is obtained from bamboo. In an elaborate process, the pulpy cellulose is drawn out into a continuous textile yarn. This is why viscose is also referred to as a continuous filament yarn. Because of the yarn's silky sheen, viscose made from bamboo is also called "Bamboo Silk". The colloquial term "Kunstseide" (artificial silk) is not permitted under the German Textile Labelling Act (TKG).The weft and warp threads of this New Teheran are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it especially suited to a hard-wearing foundation.
A note on the photos
Child labour? No thanks.
The rug trade against child labour: Children belong in school, not at a knotting or weaving loom. For us it therefore goes without saying that we only offer rugs made under fair conditions and without child labour. We place particular importance on good working conditions and tolerate no child labour at our producers.
We are proud to be a member of the Care & Fair campaign against child labour.
The industry-wide campaign CARE & FAIR - the rug trade against child labour was founded in 1994. The initiative has made it its mission to fight the excesses of illegal child labour in the knotting countries and, at the same time, to improve the overall situation of rug knotters and their families in the knotting regions of India, Nepal and Pakistan.
Our goals:
- Ending illegal child labour in India and Pakistan.
- Creating better living conditions for knotters' families.
- Socially responsible production. We only accept goods that have been made under fair conditions. Working with our producers as partners, we want to make clear to them that taking on social responsibility benefits everyone.
Together with Care & Fair we currently support 10 schools, 6 adult education centres and 3 day clinics in India and Pakistan.
