Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 140 × 73 cm, Wool

Overview

This Oriental rug comes from Iran and measures 140 × 73 cm. That is roughly 1.02 m² of floor, about 4.6' × 2.4'.

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. Construction method: hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 5-7mm.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. Small enough to sit in front of a dresser or just inside a door.

Fineness of the knotting

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.

Colour and appearance

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