Hand-Knotted Wool Kashan Persian Rug, 249 × 371 cm

Overview

Origin Iran, format 249 × 371 cm — a Kashan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 9.24 m² of floor, about 8.2' × 12.2'.

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. Construction method: hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. At this size the rug defines the room rather than accenting it.

On the knot count

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

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.
