The piece in short
This Isfahan comes from Iran and measures 134 × 212 cm. The covered area is about 2.84 m² (4.4' × 7'). Isfahan has stood for exceptionally fine knotting for centuries.
Materials and construction
Pile material is given as 100% new wool, warp as 100% silk. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.
Format and use
The rug is rectangular. The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.
On the knot count
The stated knot density is 600,000–699,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
On the colourway
Colour is recorded as red and orange. Silk takes light differently from wool, so the same area can look pale from one side and deep from the other.
