Hamadan Herati Persian Rug 84 × 137 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Hamadan Herati comes from Iran and measures 84 × 137 cm. The covered area is about 1.15 m² (2.8' × 4.5'). Hamadan rugs are typically sturdy and geometrically patterned.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Size and placement

At this size it works as an entryway mat or a bedside rug.

Fineness of the knotting

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

On the colourway

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