Kilim Persian Rug — hand-woven, 193 × 306 cm, Wool

About this rug

This Kilim comes from Iran and measures 193 × 306 cm. The covered area is about 5.91 m² (6.3' × 10').

Materials and construction

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

Size and placement

Large enough to hold a full seating group.

Flatweave

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

Colour and appearance

Colour is recorded as blue / Türkis. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
