Samarkand Pakistani Rug 173 × 240 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

About this rug

A Samarkand from Pakistan, measuring 173 × 240 cm. That is roughly 4.15 m² of floor, about 5.7' × 7.9'.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 5-7mm.

Where it fits

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

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.

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.
