Hand-Knotted Wool Mamluk Pakistani Rug, 84 × 125 cm

The piece in short

A Mamluk from Pakistan, measuring 84 × 125 cm. The covered area is about 1.05 m² (2.8' × 4.1').

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 5-7mm.

Size and placement

Small enough to sit in front of a dresser or just inside a door.

Knot density and quality

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

On the colourway

Colour is recorded as multicolour. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
