Hand-Knotted Kashan Persian Rug, 244 × 347 cm, Wool

At a glance

This Kashan comes from Iran and measures 244 × 347 cm. That is roughly 8.47 m² of floor, about 8' × 11.4'.

What it is made of

The pile is 100% new wool, on a warp of 100% cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. At this size the rug defines the room rather than accenting it.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

Colour and appearance

The stated colourway is 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.
