Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as approx. 6 mm. Weight is given as approx. 16 kg.

Format and use

On the colourway

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

Age
