Hand-Knotted Silk Qom Persian Rug, 202 × 138 cm

The piece in short

A Qom from Iran, measuring 202 × 138 cm. It covers approximately 2.79 m², or 6.6' × 4.5'. Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.

What it is made of

Stated material: silk, silk warp.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 1,000,000+ knots/m². A knot count at this level belongs to the upper quality class of handmade rugs.

How it reads

Colour is recorded as multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
