Enjelas Carpets : The small town Enjelas is located 15 km south of Hamadan. The carpets woven here have the same name and are dense and very durable. The most common design is called the "Herati" and is woven border to border repeatedly, rarely with a central medallion. The excellent quality of the wool they use is painted with natural colors that give the carpets a natural glow. The main colors used in Enjelas rugs are deep red with a complementary dark blue or vice versa, with a third color beingthe unpainted natural beige of the animal, which is used mainly in the borders and less in the rest of the area.

old Carpets : In older carpets there may be little wear.

Nomadic carpets: Carpets woven by nomads. Nomads move continuously and do not stay permanently in one geographic region. They manufacture (weave) handmade carpets on collapsible looms. Due to that fact there may be slight variations in weaving and their carpets are sometimes uneven in shape. Also the weaving is made from memory and it depends on each artisans momentary inspiration. As a result, the designs in some carpets are not even on the entire surface.

All CarpetU2 carpets are subject to cleaning with high quality antibacterial and moth protection products according to Persian law.

Horizontal or vertical shading in the carpet pile: The shading is due to folding the carpet during transportation. When the carpet is laid and stepped-on they will vanish. Examples

Abrash: Due to the different amount of grease in the wool and the added salt during the process of dyeing, the wool has got a varying colour absorbance. This is not very visible before weaving. During the weaving though, lines of the same colour are formed in the carpet. This is called Abrash (which in Farsi means little cloud) and it shows that the wool was not manufactured using chemical means and marks the naturalness and authenticity of the carpets. Examples
