Hand-Knotted Wool Samarkand Pakistani Rug, 126 × 188 cm

About this rug

This Samarkand comes from Pakistan and measures 126 × 188 cm. It covers approximately 2.37 m², or 4.1' × 6.2'.

Materials and construction

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

Size and placement

A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

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.

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.
