Hand-Knotted Wool Persian Rug, 150 × 200 cm

The piece in short

A Oriental rug from Iran, measuring 150 × 200 cm. The covered area is about 3 m² (4.9' × 6.6').

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Format and use

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

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

On the colourway

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.

Age and condition

Stated condition: new.
