Hand-Knotted Wool Tabriz Persian Rug, 197 × 290 cm

The piece in short

A Tabriz from Iran, measuring 197 × 290 cm. The covered area is about 5.71 m² (6.5' × 9.5'). Tabriz is one of the oldest and most important weaving centres in Persia.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Format and use

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. In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

How it reads

Colour is recorded as 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.
