The piece in short
A Isfahan from Iran, measuring 105 × 155 cm. The covered area is about 1.63 m² (3.4' × 5.1'). Isfahan has stood for exceptionally fine knotting for centuries.
What it is made of
Pile material is given as 100% Schurwolle mit Seide, warp as 100% silk. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.
Size and placement
The rug is rectangular. This size typically covers the floor in front of a seating group.
Knot density and quality
The stated knot density is 800,000–899,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
How it reads
It is catalogued under multicolour. Silk takes light differently from wool, so the same area can look pale from one side and deep from the other.
