Kashan Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 295 × 438 cm, Wool

About this rug

This Kashan comes from Iran and measures 295 × 438 cm. The covered area is about 12.92 m² (9.7' × 14.4').

What it is made of

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.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

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.
