Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 120 × 200 cm, Wool

Overview

This Oriental rug comes from Iran and measures 120 × 200 cm. That is roughly 2.4 m² of floor, about 3.9' × 6.6'.

Materials and construction

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

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

Fineness of the knotting

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

On the colourway

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