Kashan Persian Rug 135 × 205 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 135 × 205 cm — a Kashan made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 2.77 m², or 4.4' × 6.7'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

Fineness of the knotting

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

Colour is recorded as multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
