Kashan Persian Rug 253 × 347 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

About this rug

This Kashan comes from Iran and measures 253 × 347 cm. It covers approximately 8.78 m², or 8.3' × 11.4'.

Construction

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

Where it fits

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

Fineness of the knotting

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.

Colour and appearance

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