Qashqai Persian Rug 120 × 168 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Qashqai comes from Iran and measures 120 × 168 cm. That is roughly 2.02 m² of floor, about 3.9' × 5.5'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 12-15mm.

Format and use

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.

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.
