Kilim Persian Rug 201 × 299 cm, Wool, hand-woven

Overview

Origin Iran, format 201 × 299 cm — a Kilim made entirely by hand. That is roughly 6.01 m² of floor, about 6.6' × 9.8'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

How it is made

Woven pieces of this kind are thin, reversible, and much lighter than knotted rugs.

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.
