Samarkand Pakistani Rug 82 × 237 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

This Samarkand comes from Pakistan and measures 82 × 237 cm. It covers approximately 1.94 m², or 2.7' × 7.8'.

Materials and construction

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

Where it fits

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. 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.
