At a glance
A Bakhtiari from Iran, measuring 328 × 218 cm. It covers approximately 7.15 m², or 10.8' × 7.2'.
What it is made of
The pile is wool, on a warp of cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted. Weight is given as approx. 20 kg.
Format and use
The rug is rectangular. At this size the rug defines the room rather than accenting it.
Fineness of the knotting
The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.
Colour and appearance
It is catalogued under red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
Condition
Stated age: antique. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
