At a glance

This Oriental rug comes from Iran and measures 182 × 132 cm. It covers approximately 2.4 m², or 6' × 4.3'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 5-7mm.

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

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.

Colour and appearance

Colour is recorded as multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
