Kashan Persian Rug 129 × 64 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

A Kashan from Iran, measuring 129 × 64 cm. That is roughly 0.83 m² of floor, about 4.2' × 2.1'.

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as approx. 8 mm. Weight is given as ap. 2 kg.

Size and placement

At this size it works as an entryway mat or a bedside rug.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

How it reads

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

Period

Stated condition: new.
