Is it a Tapestry or a Pictorial Rug?
At Kamran’s Oriental Rug Bazaar in Sacramento, we have a very specific meaning when we speak of pictorial rugs. Only a hand knotted Oriental rug, designed for wall hanging or otherwise, is called a pictorial rug. A long historical tradition accompanies Persian rug designs with representations of famous people, especially royalty. Natural scenes are also featured and pictorial rugs come in a great variety, from ancient times to today.
Whether you choose to display your pictorial rug in a frame, as a wall hanging or as a rug is up to you, the customer. Our responsibility at Kamran’s is to help you find exactly the handmade pictorial rug you are looking for!
