Persian Rug 200 x 300 cm Wool Hand-knotted

Persian Rug

Material and Craftsmanship

This modern Persian rug is made from pure wool. The pile is also entirely wool, giving the surface the soft texture and comfortable feel underfoot described for the piece. Wool is traditionally used in rugs for its warm handle, natural structure, and broad practical appeal. Here, the material is presented together with a contemporary design and an olive colour.

The product title describes the rug as hand-knotted. The technical short description also lists it as woven and machine-made. Both details belong to the supplied description and are retained rather than being merged into one manufacturing claim. The documented material is pure wool, with a wool pile. The pile height is given as ten millimetres.

The rug is olive in colour. This identifies its main visible colour and supports its classification as a modern floor covering. Wool can show slight visual variation as the direction of the pile changes and as light meets the surface from different angles. No separate material information is supplied for the warp.

Origin and Tradition

The term Persian rug places this piece within the wider Persian rug tradition. Persian rugs are traditionally associated with Iran, where rug making has been passed down over many centuries. That tradition includes many different regional methods, yarn choices, colour schemes, and approaches to ornament. No particular province or city is named for this rug, so it cannot be assigned to a specific weaving area.

Persian rug history includes compositions ranging from carefully organised medallions to open floral and geometric arrangements. Alongside the visible design, traditional production depends on the preparation of the ground, the choice of yarn, and the treatment of the finished surface. In a knotted rug, individual knots build the design row by row. In a woven rug, warp and weft threads create the textile structure through interlacing. The supplied description uses both a hand-knotting designation in the title and a machine-made woven designation in the short data.

Different Persian regions have developed recognisable design languages. Tabriz is often associated with detailed, elaborately organised patterns. Isfahan is known for fine knotting and carefully worked motifs. These are examples of Persian rug traditions mentioned in the source, not origins for this particular rug. They illustrate the breadth of Persian weaving culture while keeping regional style references separate from a confirmed provenance.

This rug is classified as modern, while the supplied information also gives the period as the early twentieth century, from 1911 to 1940. Both statements are part of the description. The modern classification concerns the style, whereas the period statement provides a chronological designation. No further explanation is supplied for the combination of these two entries.

Persian rugs have traditionally been used as textile floor coverings in domestic interiors. Their appearance is shaped by the relationship between colour, pattern, pile, furniture, and light. A modern design may appear more restrained or more clearly structured than strongly ornamented historical examples. For this individual rug, the documented design information consists of its modern style and pattern together with its olive colour.

The history of Persian rugs is therefore broader than the information available for a single piece. A regional name, a motif name, or a reference to a well-known weaving centre should not automatically be read as proof of origin. In this case, no named place is provided. The rug remains described as a Persian rug with a modern pattern and an olive finish.

Design and Pattern

The pattern is listed as modern, and the style is listed as modern as well. No named floral school, medallion arrangement, or regional ornament is specified. The design is instead defined by its contemporary classification. Modern rug designs may simplify traditional forms, use clearer structures, or reduce the amount of ornament. Which of these approaches appears on this rug is not stated and is therefore not added here.

Olive is the documented colour of the rug. Olive belongs to a muted range of green tones and can create a calm, earthy colour field in an interior. With a wool pile, the direction of the fibres can influence how the colour is seen: areas lying in different directions may reflect light differently. This general surface effect explains how a rug with one recorded colour can still have visual depth without assigning further colours to it.

The modern pattern must be kept separate from provenance. A design can draw on Persian or regional traditions without proving that a rug was made in the region associated with that design. Tabriz and Isfahan are given in the source as examples of other Persian rug types; neither is an origin statement for this piece. The specific design description therefore remains limited to modern, with olive as the stated colour.

A contemporary pattern can work with different interior arrangements because it is not defined here by one historical ornament. Its visual effect depends on the surrounding furniture, the available floor area, and the light in the room. The only documented design features for this rug are the modern classification and olive colour. Claims about borders, medallions, flowers, vines, geometric figures, or a particular repeat would go beyond the supplied description.

The early twentieth-century period entry appears alongside the modern style and pattern entries. It is reproduced as part of the product information without turning it into a new historical interpretation. The time designation is early twentieth century, from 1911 to 1940; the visible stylistic designation is modern. Keeping those two descriptions distinct avoids attributing an unrecorded historical motif to the rug.

Special Features

The listed features include a pure-wool pile, an olive colour, and a modern style and pattern. The rug is described as suitable for underfloor heating. Its condition is given as new with tag, while the same description also mentions light signs of use. Both condition details are retained because both appear in the supplied information.

The pile height is ten millimetres. The product title identifies the rug as hand-knotted, while the short description calls it woven and machine-made. No knot density, signature, specific province, or warp material is supplied. These omissions are part of the factual description and are not replaced with assumptions.

FAQ

How should I care for this modern Persian rug?

The supplied care advice is to clean the rug regularly and vacuum away dust. If a stain occurs, it should be addressed promptly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Professional rug cleaning is also recommended. The surface should be treated gently during cleaning so that the wool pile and olive appearance are not unnecessarily stressed. The rug is described as suitable for underfloor heating, but that suitability does not replace the stated cleaning recommendations.

Where does this modern Persian rug come from?

No specific province or city is named for this rug. The term Persian rug refers to the wider Persian tradition, which is traditionally associated with Iran. The source also says that the rug comes from a region known for its patterns and colours, but that region is not identified. Tabriz and Isfahan are mentioned as examples of other Persian rug types and should not be treated as the provenance of this individual piece.

What are the benefits of a rug made from pure wool?

The supplied description presents wool as durable and hard-wearing, as well as resistant to dirt and easy to care for. It also describes wool as naturally regulating temperature and contributing to a pleasant room climate. The pile of this rug is made from pure wool and is described as soft with a comfortable feel underfoot. Wool is additionally described as hypoallergenic in the source. These are material characteristics attributed to wool, not separate construction details of the rug.
