Shiraz Persian Rug 175 × 260 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Shiraz comes from Iran and measures 175 × 260 cm. That is roughly 4.55 m² of floor, about 5.7' × 8.5'. Shiraz rugs come from a nomadic weaving tradition.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. Construction method: hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Size and placement

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

Knot density and quality

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 red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
