Samarkand Pakistani Rug 151 × 208 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

A Samarkand from Pakistan, measuring 151 × 208 cm. The covered area is about 3.14 m² (5' × 6.8').

Materials and construction

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

Where it fits

A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

On the knot count

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.

On the colourway

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.
