Kashan Persian Rug 246 × 359 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 246 × 359 cm — a Kashan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 8.83 m² of floor, about 8.1' × 11.8'.

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

The rug is rectangular. A format for large rooms, with space for an entire seating arrangement.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

On the colourway

It is catalogued under red and orange. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
