Tabriz Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 296 × 386 cm, Wool

The piece in short

This Tabriz comes from Iran and measures 296 × 386 cm. The covered area is about 11.43 m² (9.7' × 12.7'). Tabriz is one of the oldest and most important weaving centres in Persia.

Construction

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

Size and placement

A format for large rooms, with space for an entire seating arrangement.

On the knot count

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

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