Up to this very day, the art of rug making or carpet making is widely practiced in the Middle East and some parts of Asia. Persian rugs or carpets are those that are traditionally handmade in Iran but there are now so called Persian rugs that are machine made. There are actually three kinds of Persian carpets that are available in the market and they are classified by their size.
There's also another way of naming the different sorts of Persian rugs and this is thru their designs and the towns or areas in which they're frequently produced. Occasionally the classification is also based mostly on the kind of design used, the weaving method and the sort of material utilized for the rug. Persian rugs and carpets originated from Islamic regions and are still found in many Islamic regions up to this very day. When the Mongols attacked some Islamic areas, it is maintained that they brought the art of weaving carpets and rugs to China.
