Tabriz Persian Rug 300 × 200 cm, Wool & Silk, hand-knotted

A hand-knotted Tabriz rug from Iran, 300 × 200 cm. Tabriz weavers use a hook-ended knife, and the resulting weave is tighter than in neighbouring regions. The stated density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m²; over 6 m² that is roughly 2.1 million knots, a medium-fine weave that wears well underfoot. 100% wool with silk. The silk takes the highlights and the wool the body — you can feel the difference with a hand across the surface. A living-room size: 300 × 200 cm sits well under a coffee table with room to walk around it. Proportion 1.5:1. One of a kind: hand-knotted rugs are not made in editions, so this exact piece exists once.
