Hand-Knotted Wool Isfahan Persian Rug, 305 × 405 cm

At a glance

Origin Iran, format 305 × 405 cm — a Isfahan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 12.35 m² of floor, about 10' × 13.3'. Isfahan has stood for exceptionally fine knotting for centuries.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 5-7mm.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. A large format for open-plan rooms or formal reception spaces.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

How it reads

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.
