Hand-Knotted Wool Sarouk Persian Rug, 211 × 276 cm

At a glance

Origin Iran, format 211 × 276 cm — a Sarouk made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 5.82 m² (6.9' × 9.1'). Sarouk rugs are known for dense knotting and floral motifs.

Construction

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

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

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.
