Isfahan Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 198 × 290 cm, Wool & Silk

About this rug

Origin Iran, format 198 × 290 cm — a Isfahan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 5.74 m² of floor, about 6.5' × 9.5'. Isfahan has stood for exceptionally fine knotting for centuries.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Where it fits

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 400,000–499,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

On the colourway

Colour is recorded as blue / Türkis. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
