Esfahan, Feb 21, IRNA- Head of Iran National Carpet Center Farahnaz Rafe’ said on Sunday that the export of Iran’s hand-woven carpet has risen by 14 percent compared to last year.

Rafe’ made the remarks at the 23rd Handwoven Carpet Exhibition in Esfahan, noting that Iran witnessed the rise in the area despite the imposed sanctions and the coronavirus outbreak.

The quality of Iranian carpet is second to none in the world of carpets, she further noted.

To preserve the brand of the Iranian carpet in the market, some measures are being taken, she added.

She called on the domestic centers to help prepare the necessary raw material, noting that this action will make Iran become independent to this end.
