Stagnation in the taropod of Hamedan carpets

Years ago, in many homes, especially in the countryside, women were carpet weavers, and men and women read the map aloud, and carpet weavers knotted. Flowers sprouted on the carpet, buds opened, birds sang.
But these days, when machine-made carpets are mass-produced, and in the days of the prosperity of Chinese carpets and in the days of sanctions and fluctuations in the dollar, Iranian carpets are not in a good mood.
In the past, the production of handmade and traditional carpets and rugs was considered as one of the most lucrative and productive products in Hamedan, but now the carpet weaving in this province has declined and according to carpet market activists, there are no more weavers in Hamedan.
If we consider Pazberlak as the oldest Iranian carpet, carpet weaving in Iran dates back to 500 BC, that is, more than 2,000 years ago. It is one of the poles of weaving quality carpets and over time it has attracted the attention of merchants and enthusiasts abroad, and since those days, Hamedan handmade carpets have gained a special reputation.
As carpet market activists say, it is exports that make Iranian carpets prosper, and the main reason for the boom in the Hamadan carpet market is the lack of carpet exports and the lack of skilled weavers.
