Hand-Knotted Wool Persian Rug, 197 × 305 cm

At a glance

Origin Iran, format 197 × 305 cm — a Oriental rug made entirely by hand. That is roughly 6.01 m² of floor, about 6.5' × 10'.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 12-15mm.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

How it reads

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