Choose the Perfect Persian Carpet
Choosing a Persian carpet is not just about decorating a space — it’s about bringing culture, tradition, and soul into your home. These rugs carry centuries of craftsmanship, regional heritage, and symbolism. At Amir Carpet, we believe each rug has a story. If you're looking for the perfect piece, here’s everything you need to consider to make the right choice
1. Start with the Right Size
Choosing the right size is the first and most important step. The rug needs to fit your space properly, otherwise even the most beautiful piece will feel out of place.
Living Room
If you want your carpet to anchor your space, go for something like 200x300 cm or 250x350 cm — enough to fit under the front legs of your sofa and center the room.
Bedroom
For a cozy feel underfoot, 160x230 cm or a large kilim or even the smaller ones like 200x80 by the sides of the bed works well , or you can choose a nice tribal or city rugs like hamedan , sernajan , balouch , nahawand , kashan , shiraz , nain...
Hallways
Use a narrow runner like 70x240 cm or 80x300 cm or 100x300 ideal for entrances, corridors, or staircases.
2. Choose a Style That Matches You
Once you’ve got the size, now comes the fun part , picking a rug style that matches your personality and home.
If you're looking for something elegant and luxurious
Go for a City Rug like Nain, Tabriz, kashan or Isfahan. These pieces are often made with fine wool and silk, and feature incredibly detailed floral patterns. They’re perfect for formal living rooms or places where you want to add a touch of class.

Kilim rugs are flat woven and lightweight , perfect for bedrooms, kitchens, or under coffee tables. They’re easy to move and bring a playful energy to any space.
3. Match the Mood with the Right Colors
Your carpet sets the tone of the room.
Light colors open up the space and make the room feel bright and clean.
Dark tones add depth, warmth, and a more grounded feeling.
Bold patterns bring energy and become the focal point of the room.
Neutrals are timeless, calm, and work with almost anything.
There’s no one “right” choice — go with the color that fits the atmosphere you want to create in your home.
