Hand-knotted Kashmir Oriental Rug in Silk, 308 × 82 cm

Roughly 1.4 million knots tied by hand into 2.53 m² — a Kashmir rug from India, 308 × 82 cm. The Kashmir tradition took Persian drawing north into India and kept the floral density. The stated density is 500,000-599,999 knots/sqm — a knot count that balances detail against durability. Pile 100% silk, warp 100% cotton. A silk pile shifts tone as you move past it — the same field reads light from one side of the room and dark from the other. The cotton foundation holds it flat and dimensionally stable. At 82 cm wide it is a corridor piece. Proportion 3.76:1. Every rug here is a single piece — there is no second one in this size and colour.
