Description

Overview

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Qom of 178 × 123 cm. That is roughly 2.19 m² of floor, about 5.8' × 4'. Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, silk. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as approx. 8 mm. Weight is given as approx. 6 kg.

Where it fits

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

Knot density and quality

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

How it reads

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

Period

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