Qashqai Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 144 × 101 cm, Wool

Overview

A Qashqai from Iran, measuring 144 × 101 cm. The covered area is about 1.45 m² (4.7' × 3.3').

What it is made of

Stated material: new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as approx. 10 mm. Weight is given as ap. 5 kg.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. 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

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.

Period

Stated condition: new.
