Antique Bakhtiari Persian Rug — 200 × 132 cm, Wool

The piece in short

A Bakhtiari from Iran, measuring 200 × 132 cm. The covered area is about 2.64 m² (6.6' × 4.3').

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as approx. 10 mm. Weight is given as approx. 9 kg.

Where it fits

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

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

On the colourway

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

Age and condition

Stated age: antique. As an antique piece, condition should be judged against its age.
