The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Kerman of 202 × 303 cm. It covers approximately 6.12 m², or 6.6' × 9.9'. Kerman is associated with soft colour transitions and floral compositions.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

How it reads

Colour is recorded as red and orange. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
