Hamadan Persian Rug 213 × 312 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Hamadan of 213 × 312 cm. It covers approximately 6.65 m², or 7' × 10.2'. Hamadan rugs are typically sturdy and geometrically patterned.

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

Fineness of the knotting

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.
