Hand-Knotted Wool Kashan Persian Rug, 253 × 360 cm

About this rug

Origin Iran, format 253 × 360 cm — a Kashan made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 9.11 m² (8.3' × 11.8').

Materials and construction

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

Format and use

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

Knot density and quality

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.
