Wool Isfahan Persian Rug 138 × 211 cm, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 138 × 211 cm — a Isfahan made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 2.91 m² (4.5' × 6.9'). Isfahan has stood for exceptionally fine knotting for centuries.

Materials and construction

The pile is 100% new wool, on a warp of 100% silk. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Format and use

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 600,000–699,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

On the colourway

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