Hand-Knotted Wool & Silk Kashmir Indian Rug, 153 × 223 cm

The piece in short

Origin India, format 153 × 223 cm — a Kashmir made entirely by hand. That is roughly 3.41 m² of floor, about 5' × 7.3'.

Construction

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

Format and use

At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 500,000–599,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

How it reads

The stated colourway is Weiß / beige. With traditionally dyed wool, small variations of tone within one field are normal.
