Persian Rug 362 × 225 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Oriental rug of 362 × 225 cm. That is roughly 8.15 m² of floor, about 11.9' × 7.4'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as approx. 8 mm. Weight is given as ap. 22 kg.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. A large format for open-plan rooms or formal reception spaces.

On the knot count

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

Age

Stated age: contemporary, 0–20 years old. As a contemporary piece the pile is still even and largely unwalked.
