Golran

Golran’s history is a harmonious intertwining of travel, culture, and traditions: it is the story of a family that, one generation after another, has handed down the venerable and invaluable art of the trade and production of superior-quality carpets made entirely by hand. It’s a nomadic journey that begins in 1898 in Mashhad, Persia, with Hajizadeh Golran, and then arrives in Milan in 1968, with his son Elyas, and continues to the four corners of Earth with the efforts at expansion undertaken by Nemat and Ruben, who first reinforce the research and trade networks and also intensify the collaborations with international designers and artists. The results feature decorative objects distinguished by a timeless refinement, with an esthetic and functional value, often fitting midway between the world of design and the world of art. Articulating the authentic flavor of traditional collections with the creative thrust of collaborations with internationally renowned designers, Golran represents a point of reference for the entire sector. In its two-fold role as manufacturer and publisher, following a conceptual line that ranges between traditional craftwork, luxury, and contemporary design, the company has become the spokesman for a new esthetics of the art of the carpet.
