Ardebil Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 200 × 290 cm, Silk

The piece in short

This Ardebil comes from Iran and measures 200 × 290 cm. The covered area is about 5.8 m² (6.6' × 9.5').

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. Large enough to hold a full seating group.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

Colour and appearance

It is catalogued under red and orange. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
