Zollanvari

For a company to stay relevant to the market over decades takes great courage and initiative. Zollanvari is an Iranian Switzerland-based company that celebrated their diamond jubilee anniversary in 2022, a year that marked 75 years of rug excellence and innovation for the highly respected and trend setting company. Headed by Reza Zollanvari, the company is a market leader, always pushing design and production boundaries to stay ahead of the rug crowd. The drive for using the best of traditional techniques and materials to produce rugs in tune with the contemporary market began with Reza’s father Gholamreza Zollanvari, who back in 1947 in Iran took his own father’s rug dealing business to a new level. Gholamreza’s indefatigable determination revolutionised Persian domestic weavings such as gabbehs, and introduced them to an eager Western market. Zollanvari were the company to open the world’s eyes to Persian nomadic weaving and it continues to do so today. A lifetime of experience in developing traditional rug making and keeping up to date with contemporary market needs, means Zollanvari is a company that knows how to stay relevant to the contemporary market while keeping true to the art of rug making.
