Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Where it fits

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. This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

How it reads

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