Kashan Persian Rug 303 × 395 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 303 × 395 cm — a Kashan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 11.97 m² of floor, about 9.9' × 13'.

Materials and construction

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

Format and use

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

On the knot count

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

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.
