Kilim Persian Rug — hand-woven, 204 × 309 cm, Wool

The piece in short

This Kilim comes from Iran and measures 204 × 309 cm. The covered area is about 6.3 m² (6.7' × 10.1').

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-woven. Pile height is given as 5mm.

Format and use

A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

How it is made

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

How it reads

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.
