Kars Indian Rug — hand-knotted, 190 × 126 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in India: a Kars of 190 × 126 cm. The covered area is about 2.39 m² (6.2' × 4.1').

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 5-7mm.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

Colour and appearance

The stated colourway is multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.

Age

Stated condition: new.
