Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as approx. 10 mm. Weight is given as ap. 22 kg.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. At this size the rug defines the room rather than accenting it.

On the knot count

How it reads

The stated colourway is Braun / Gelb. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.

Period

Stated age: contemporary, 0–20 years old. Being recent, the pile shows little wear and holds its full height.
