The site is known for the Masjid e Shah, the pinnacle of Safavid Architecture, the Masjid of Lotfollah, the magnificent Portico of Qaysariyyeh, the grand Ali Qapu Palace and the fifteenth-century Timurid Palace.

It’s 1990 all over again!

In the early 1990’s, my wife I were obsessed with hand woven, vegetable dyed Turkish carpets from Azeri/Woven Legends. We spent so much time at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC, we became good friends with the head rug buyer!! We haven’t purchased a rug in years, but I found a wonderful Woven Legends carpet at Shopvintagerugs and bought myself an early birthday present. The rug was shipped from Pakistan on Monday, made its way to Dubai, then Boston, Memphis and finally arrived to us today. I couldn’t be happier!
