Overview

Origin Iran, format 213 × 313 cm — a Hamadan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 6.67 m² of floor, about 7' × 10.3'. Hamadan rugs are typically sturdy and geometrically patterned.

Where it fits

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

Knot density and quality

On the colourway
