Hand-Knotted Wool Persian Rug, 140 × 208 cm

Overview

Origin Iran, format 140 × 208 cm — a Oriental rug made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 2.91 m², or 4.6' × 6.8'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

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.

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.
