Hand-Knotted Wool Persian Rug, 83 × 278 cm

The piece in short

A Oriental rug from Iran, measuring 83 × 278 cm. The covered area is about 2.31 m² (2.7' × 9.1').

Materials and construction

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

Size and placement

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.

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.
