  • Omar Khayam Pictorial rugs are made in Isfahan, which is known worldwide for its unique quality of handmade carpets, as they reflect the special beauty of the cities architecture, art and handicrafts. The patterns used in these carpets are often inspired by beautiful gardens, natural landscapes and kings palaces. Carpets of Isfahan have high-class, when it comes to the composition of the patterns, materials and designs, giving out a sense of luxury and excellence. The high knot density places Isfahan carpets to the top category of Persian handmade rugs. Isfahan carpets are thought to be among the finest of all Persian carpets today. The man depicted in these pictorial carpets is the famous Omar Khayyam (May 18th, 1048 to December 4th, 1131). His scientific studies in the fields of astronomy, mechanics, mineralogy and mathematics place him amongst the most influential of that time, making him worthy of the title true polymath. He was also a great poet. His best poet work is The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám. The patterns on this unique piece of art depict the central idea of the poems of the great poet Omar Khayyam.
