About this rug

This Kashan comes from Iran and measures 246 × 371 cm. That is roughly 9.13 m² of floor, about 8.1' × 12.2'.

Construction

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

Format and use

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

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

How it reads

Colour is recorded as red and orange. With traditionally dyed wool, small variations of tone within one field are normal.
