If the dimensions of the handwoven carpet are around 1.5x2.5 or 2.8x1.7 square meters, it is called a large carpet or so-called "curtain". The application of this type of carpets, which are usually woven using very high-quality wool and silk fibers and in the high index, as its name suggests, is as a curtain and is used as a pendant. Therefore, it is important that the curtain carpet is woven in such a way that it has a standard weight and can be used as a hanging. Regarding curtain carpets, it is necessary to point out the interesting point that the use of carpets as curtains has never been a part of Iranian culture and traditions, and the reason for using carpets as curtains should be sought elsewhere. According to Parviz Tanavoli, a prominent Iranian artist, after the introduction of the printing industry to Iran and the publication of the pictures of Iranian kalamkar curtains in these books, subsequently the pictures of these kalamkar curtains, which were similar in size to carpets, were inspired and imitated by Iranian weavers. The term "curtain" and the texture of carpets with the function of a curtain became popular in Iran after that.
