Mamluk Pakistani Rug 276 × 367 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Pakistan, format 276 × 367 cm — a Mamluk made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 10.13 m², or 9.1' × 12'.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. Construction method: hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 5-7mm.

Format and use

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. Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

On the colourway

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