History of the Workshop
Aghaghol Mirmheidi is the founder of "Mirmheidi Workshop". He was born in 1932 in Jasb, which was once part of Isfahan Province and is now part of Markazi Province. He began making hand-woven carpets at the age of 16 and completed his first work.
His first woven carpet was a wool carpet with a Caucasian-style pattern, measuring 2.5 x 3.5m. It was made in Jasb with a navy blue base. Later, he expanded his design range by collaborating with prominent designers from Kashan, such as Seyed Reza Khan Sanai, Afsari Kashan, and Sazvar.
He created carpets by adding his unique sense of color to the sketches drawn by these designers. All of his early works were made of wool, with a weaving density of 30-40 Raj (a unit representing the weaving density of Persian carpets). His reputation quickly spread due to the delicate weaving by skilled artisans, the use of high-quality wool, the adoption of traditional designs, and his unique color techniques.
Challenges of the Workshop
In addition to producing wool carpets, he also began producing silk carpets in Qom. His first silk carpet was a 6-meter pure silk piece with a Shah Abbasi pattern in navy blue. Through his tireless efforts and passion, he established one of the largest hand-woven carpet workshop brands in Qom.
Characteristics of the Workshop
Mirmheidi Workshop carpets are distinguished by their beauty and originality, created in collaboration with Persia's leading designers. Founder Aghaghol Mirmheidi's unique coloring techniques add unparalleled charm to his works.
Furthermore, they carefully select the highest quality silk and wool, and skilled artisans weave them using traditional techniques with high craftsmanship. In addition, thorough quality control, with attention to every detail, ensures the continuous production of highly finished carpets. As a result, Mirmheidi Workshop carpets are highly acclaimed as works of art worldwide.
Mission of the Workshop
Currently, Mirmheidi Workshop is celebrating its 74th anniversary and continues to produce the finest silk Persian carpets in Qom under the guidance of Aghaghol Mirmheidi and his sons (Ali, Reza, Abolfazl, Mohammad).
The mission of this workshop is to preserve Persia's traditional techniques while creating the highest quality works of art and delivering them to people around the world. Currently, Mirmheidi Workshop carpets elegantly adorn galleries, museums, and residences worldwide.
Check the workshop signature before purchase.
The Workshop's Signature
The signature is woven in elegant Persian calligraphy reading "Qom · Mirmehdi". When the workshop name appears subtly throughout the carpet — in the field, medallion, pendants, corners, and borders — it is regarded as a mark that Mirmehdi himself was satisfied enough to sign off the whole piece.
Each workshop has its own distinctive colour palette and pattern style.
Colour & Pattern Profile
Mirmehdi Workshop pieces are distinguished by rare geometric patterns and a signature "paradise of small birds" motif. Built around soft greens and blues, the colours hold their vivid clarity even decades on. Some of the tones come from natural plant dyes, lending the work a quiet warmth.
The craftsmen's care shows in the weave — perfectly even, with the patterns so alive they almost seem to move. Through painstaking workmanship, these carpets transcend their purpose as floor coverings and become works of art in their own right.

When unfurled in the reception room, a large Tree of Life rises from a deep blue ground, with two peacocks facing each other at its base, and colorful small birds chirping on its branches. It depicts a paradise scene with over 10 types of flowers such as roses, dahlias, and jasmine blooming profusely.
The Tree of Life (Peacock Paradise) from Mirmehdi Workshop
This is a work from the Mirmehdi workshop, renowned worldwide among Qum silk carpets for its sense of color and detailed expression. The owner himself fell in love with it and selected it as one of the "Rare Masterpieces" that would be extremely difficult to acquire again in the same quality. The "Tree of Life (Drakht-e Zendegi)" symbolizes an oasis, a paradise dreamt of by people living in arid regions. This piece features a large tree rising from a deep mixed blue ground, with two peacocks at its base, multicolored small birds on its branches, and a continuous floral pattern with birds facing each other on the border. It uses several times more colors than other Qum silk carpets, with realistic expressions where flowers and feathers appear to rise three-dimensionally.
The Intricacy and Luster Unique to Silk
Because it is made of fine 100% silk threads, you can discern the peacock's tail feathers, the birds' wings, the shading of the flower petals, and even the continuous floral pattern on the border. The deep blue recedes at different angles of light, while the blue of the peacocks and the multicolored flowers emerge, creating an expression unique to silk.
How to Incorporate it into Your Life
Measuring 108x160cm, it's the perfect size for a center rug in front of a sofa, a focal point in a reception room, a study, or framed as a wall decoration. The combination of deep blue and multiple colors blends well with white walls and wooden floors, adding a tale of paradise to the space.
This is a rare piece that the shop owner specially selected, fell in love with, and brought back from a workshop in Qum. You can see the actual luster and details of the Tree of Life, peacocks, and small birds in the video. Golestan Persian Carpet Specialty Store.
