Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 130 × 210 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 130 × 210 cm — a Oriental rug made entirely by hand. That is roughly 2.73 m² of floor, about 4.3' × 6.9'.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely 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.

On the knot count

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

Colour and appearance

The stated colourway is red and orange. 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.
