Hand-Knotted Hamadan Herati Persian Rug, 88 × 133 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 88 × 133 cm — a Hamadan, Herati made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 1.17 m² (2.9' × 4.4'). Hamadan rugs are typically sturdy and geometrically patterned.

Construction

Pile material is given as 100% new wool, warp as 100% cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Size and placement

A small format, at home in a hallway, beside a bed, or in front of a bench.

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.

How it reads

Colour is recorded as multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
