Bakhtiari Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 210 × 295 cm, Wool

The piece in short

A Bakhtiari from Iran, measuring 210 × 295 cm. That is roughly 6.2 m² of floor, about 6.9' × 9.7'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Format and use

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

How it reads

It is catalogued under multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
