Shiraz Persian Rug 172 × 264 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

This Shiraz comes from Iran and measures 172 × 264 cm. The covered area is about 4.54 m² (5.6' × 8.7'). Shiraz rugs come from a nomadic weaving tradition.

What it is made of

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

Where it fits

Large enough to hold a full seating group.

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

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