Heriz Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 215 × 305 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 215 × 305 cm — a Heriz made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 6.56 m² (7.1' × 10'). Heriz rugs usually carry a bold, angular central medallion.

What it is made of

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

Size and placement

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

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.

Colour and appearance

It is catalogued under red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
