Kashan Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 289 × 394 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 289 × 394 cm — a Kashan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 11.39 m² of floor, about 9.5' × 12.9'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Size and placement

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

On the knot count

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

How it reads

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.
