Samarkand Pakistani Rug — hand-knotted, 85 × 123 cm, Wool

About this rug

Origin Pakistan, format 85 × 123 cm — a Samarkand made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 1.05 m² (2.8' × 4').

What it is made of

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

Size and placement

Small enough to sit in front of a dresser or just inside a door.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

On the colourway

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.
