Hand-Knotted Wool Bakhtiari Persian Rug, 311 × 215 cm

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Bakhtiari of 311 × 215 cm. That is roughly 6.69 m² of floor, about 10.2' × 7.1'.

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 ap. 20 kg.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

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

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.

Age

Stated condition: new.
