Kilim Pakistani Rug — hand-woven, 173 × 241 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Hand-woven in Pakistan: a Kilim of 173 × 241 cm. It covers approximately 4.17 m², or 5.7' × 7.9'.

Construction

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

Format and use

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

Weave

Because it is woven rather than knotted, the structure is flat and usable on both sides.

How it reads

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.
