Overview

A Qom from Iran, measuring 105 × 150 cm. The covered area is about 1.58 m² (3.4' × 4.9'). Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.

Construction

Stated material: silk, silk warp. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 4mm.

Format and use

The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 900,000–999,999 knots/m². A knot count at this level belongs to the upper quality class of handmade rugs.

Colour and appearance

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