Hand-Knotted Wool Samarkand Pakistani Rug, 153 × 213 cm

Overview

A Samarkand from Pakistan, measuring 153 × 213 cm. That is roughly 3.26 m² of floor, about 5' × 7'.

What it is made of

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

Format and use

A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

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