Persian Rugs

Fair Trade Books now carries fair trade, hand-knotted wool and silk semi-antique Persian rugs from Iran. We can also appraise, repair, and clean your hand-knotted wool and/or silk rugs.

Fair Trade Books has partnered with Jamshid Zadmehran, owner of the St Paul Oriental Rug Gallery, to offer art on the floor! Hand-knotted wool and silk rugs from Iran are the finest quality handmade rugs available, and Jamshid has selected some of his finest examples of this ancient art form to offer to Red Wing’s Fair Trade Books customers. These rugs take months-years to make by village, tribal, and city artisans. We have rugs in an array of styles, sizes, and designs. They have to be seen, and touched, to be truly appreciated. Come visit us! It is fair to say that we have fallen hard for these works of art! Pictured below are only a few of the treasures we have procured.
