Isfahan Persian Rug 115 × 170 cm in Wool & Silk, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Isfahan comes from Iran and measures 115 × 170 cm. That is roughly 1.96 m² of floor, about 3.8' × 5.6'. Isfahan has stood for exceptionally fine knotting for centuries.

What it is made of

Construction: 100% Schurwolle mit Seide in the pile over a 100% silk foundation. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 800,000–899,999 knots/m². A knot count at this level belongs to the upper quality class of handmade rugs.

How it reads

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