Persian Rug 215 × 134 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Oriental rug of 215 × 134 cm. The covered area is about 2.88 m² (7.1' × 4.4').

Construction

It is entirely hand-knotted.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

How it reads

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

Period

Stated condition: made 1920–1949.
