Persian Najafabad Wool Rug - 4.04 x 2.96 ConnoisseurNajafabad rugs originate from Najafabad, located in central Iran near the city of Isfahan. As well as being a well known and respected center for area rug weaving, Najafabad is also the trade center for an agricultural region noted for its pomegranates.

The style follows most closely the designs and colors of its neighbors in Isfahan and Kashan and to a lesser degree Yadz
