Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 425 × 81 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Oriental rug of 425 × 81 cm. That is roughly 3.44 m² of floor, about 13.9' × 2.7'.

What it is made of

Stated material: new wool.

Size and placement

Large enough to hold a full seating group.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

Colour and appearance

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