Heriz Persian Rug 228 × 300 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 228 × 300 cm — a Heriz made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 6.84 m², or 7.5' × 9.8'. Heriz rugs usually carry a bold, angular central medallion.

Construction

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

Where it fits

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

Knot density and quality

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.

Colour and appearance

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.
