Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 111 × 208 cm, Wool

The piece in short

This Oriental rug comes from Iran and measures 111 × 208 cm. That is roughly 2.31 m² of floor, about 3.6' × 6.8'.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Format and use

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

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

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.
