• From 1340 to 1350
• from 1350 to 1360
• From 1360 to 1366
• From 1366 to date

A: Start weaving until 1340
The first part of this period, five, from the carpet to the formation in 1340 are included. Despite the large supply of carpets, silence and silence during this period can be called Kashmar carpet. In this era of God's people like Khani, Ahmet Turk, Mohammad Hossein Vazan, Ali Ebrahimi, Ali Sayah, Haj Abbas Golestani, Ghaffari and ... Kashmar particular emphasis on the production of high-quality carpets and products with special features, because they are a small percentage of the number of poor Kashmar carpets, fabric and carpet manufacturing practices could not desirable, are effective. The main characteristics of the carpet in shades of suitable vegetation, the use of multiple methods of China is a weft knitting pair, and most importantly the lack of diverse plans. Two years ago, the 40 Plan, named and known, justice and Zarrinkelk has good plans. These two projects, mainly in rural areas and among Torbate heydarieh and were woven in villages between torbat- Kashmar influence in many areas including Kahmar, found scattered over many years KASHMARI were used by the weavers. However, based on research conducted using diamond projects in Chahar Mahal Bakhtiari carpets are very similar, in the years before 1330 in Kashmar was common. During those years, the design of much of the area was devoted to the production of many well-known manufacturers of Kashmar, in huge numbers, produced and sold. About why and how to enter the project area Kashmar carpets, little explanation can be found. But according to some historical sources, Nader Shah Afshar, a group of Bakhtiar tribes moved to the western areas of Kashmar that can be input into the plan.

B: from 1340 to 1350
1340 can be a year of change and innovation for the Kashmar carpets outlined. This year, with the arrival of Professor Alipur, a huge transformation in Khorasan carpets, especially Kashmar occurred. After his four-year stay in the Kashmar carpet area which left a profound impact on not only the effects of which are still in Kashmar but in all parts of the province, is visible. His entry, a new wave of projects and new initiatives into Kashmar carpets, and the vacuum caused by poor drawings, originating in the territory of an effects return. Innovation and change in plans, besides enhancing Rajshomar carpets up to about 35 and 40 knots, are the outstanding characteristics of this era. Unearth CD release Kashmar in Khorasan particular plan Earthenware is known using some common flower motifs and designs of Tabriz, Kashmar carpet was a novelty that makes a boom. In this scheme in addition to the use of images, jars, vases, and bowls, there were several scenes, usually in blue and crimson were supplied. No coloring drawings during design and to identify any part of the project with a number of other innovations Alipur teacher was brought from Tabriz. This means that the side of each map, the sample of the desired color was placed and the placement of the text color map was marked with special numbers. The way now after 30 years, still has features designed specifically for Kashmar.
Four Seasons, the famous professor of Alipur in Khorasan other projects that we did not manage to find the original version of the plan . But a similar scheme at Neyshapur, with Professor Gholamreza was found. including custom designs, he is a professor at Alipur.
Font type and style master Alipur, in order to observe some novel ways, with significant differences between before and after the style itself. Asymmetry is apparent in every image and every design element that is recognizable at first glance, which is characteristic of today's schemes in all the designs in the style of can be seen.
During his stay, at Professor Alipur in Kashmar, many designers - including Professor Hossein Eskandari was fifty years behind them - he went as a student to learn and complete their own knowledge. After returning to Mashhad's master, so long as he follows the style, and technique KASHMARI many designers and architects were surrounding cities.

(C) from 1350 to 1360
Kashan carpets with a good market, especially in the export sector, weavers KASHMARI can not very successful business sale Kashan carpets are light. Perhaps the low quality woven Kashan Kashmar was not consistent with the actual quality of the original product, this success is not a factor. Using crack instead of wool for carpet pile carpets of the most important features is the ten-year period.

D: from 1360 to 1366
carpet weavers intended in 1360 with original designs Khorasan particular types of Isafshan maps and Lachak toranj Shah Abbasi with large flowers, unique carpets, Mashhad and return to the original plans, including plans under the earth, a new period carpet KASHMAR began.
Mashhad relatively good market design, especially with bright colors and large flowers Shah Abbas, the important factor was changing. The style of Kashan carpets produced in this period also continued sporadically.

H: Since 1366 to date
Since 1366, there is a great market and exceptional Nain rugs inside and outside the country - that penetrates faster than other provinces was conducted in Khorasan led to thousands of weavers of Kashmar, Khorasan after many years of infiltration projects eventually surrendered increasingly to supply carpets this way embark.
This practice still continues in Kashmar and its surrounding villages and the main axis of the region's current form.

- Current Projects
Currently, plans and designs used in Kashmar in terms of production can be classified as follows:
1 - Nain projects 2 - Kashan designs 3 - Promotional Video 4 - New West rosettes
Long video projects that are of interest to designers and weavers KASHMIRI. But it is not clear due to the lack of skills in the context of this type of project because Rajshomar KASHMIRI weavers and weave their way - because they insist on offering the Miniature pictures and so what?
- Dyeing
We have about 10 active dyeing workshops in Kashmar, Kashmar carpet weaving workshops provide an important part of the raw material and its suburbs are the ink colors, special colors, import from china, they will form an important part of the consumer.
The type of lacquer used in Kashmar carpets can be woven recognize a differently, and perhaps also be considered in this area.
