Kilim Pakistani Rug 157 × 198 cm, Wool, hand-woven

At a glance

Origin Pakistan, format 157 × 198 cm — a Kilim made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 3.11 m² (5.2' × 6.5').

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-woven throughout. Pile height is given as 5mm.

Where it fits

At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

Flatweave

Woven pieces of this kind are thin, reversible, and much lighter than knotted rugs.

Colour and appearance

The stated colourway is multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
