Ardebil Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 75 × 105 cm, Wool

About this rug

This Ardebil comes from Iran and measures 75 × 105 cm. The covered area is about 0.79 m² (2.5' × 3.4').

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Size and placement

Small enough to sit in front of a dresser or just inside a door.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

On the colourway

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.
