The Hamedan region is one of the most important carpet landscapes in Iran. Numerous villages surrounding the city have produced hand-knotted rugs for generations. Many well-known village provenances such as Malayer, Nahavand, and Hosseinabad are traditionally associated with the wider Hamedan area.
A defining characteristic of Hamedan rugs is their village-based production. Unlike large urban workshops, these carpets are often woven in smaller local workshops or family weaving environments. This process preserves their authentic appearance and reflects the cultural diversity of the region.
