The dust of oblivion on Iranian handmade carpets
For many years, handmade carpets, this unique Iranian art, have flourished and may not be far away when its design and style have left only a role in our minds.
Especially if we know that in the last few years, the export of handmade carpets has increased from 1 billion and 700 million dollars, now to less than 60 million dollars, the same amount of which is exported in the form of luggage to unknown countries.
Hamed Chamanrokh, a member of the board of directors of handmade carpet manufacturers and exporters, says that with the imposition of sanctions, just when the export of handmade carpets was booming, the export revenue suddenly lost more than $ 200 million. It was then that the central bank inflicted more than $ 200 billion on the industry by imposing new policies called export-back currency.
