Hand-Knotted Wool Kashan Persian Rug, 296 × 407 cm

About this rug

This Kashan comes from Iran and measures 296 × 407 cm. It covers approximately 12.05 m², or 9.7' × 13.4'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Format and use

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

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.
