Persian Rug 289 × 293 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

About this rug

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Oriental rug of 289 × 293 cm. That is roughly 8.47 m² of floor, about 9.5' × 9.6'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as approx. 10 mm. Weight is given as ap. 30 kg.

Format and use

The rug is square. At this size the rug defines the room rather than accenting it.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

On the colourway

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.

Age and condition

Stated age: contemporary, 0–20 years old. Being recent, the pile shows little wear and holds its full height.
