Certificate of authenticity for Persian rugs
At Gallery Persepolis, we guarantee the authenticity of every Persian carpet with our Certificate of Authenticity. This document confirms the origin and quality of your carpet, so you can enjoy your purchase with confidence.
Why a certificate of authenticity is essential
A certificate of authenticity prevents uncertainty and misunderstandings. It provides objective clarity regarding the origin, materials used, and craftsmanship of a Persian carpet. This is of great importance during purchase and often decisive for insurance, valuation, or later resale.
Without expert assessment, the true quality and value remain difficult to determine. A certificate therefore offers peace of mind and assurance, both for private buyers and collectors.

The certificate is uniquely linked to the specific carpet and is issued by Gallery Persepolis.

Dimensions and technique
