Hand-Knotted Persian Rug, 130 × 82 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 130 × 82 cm — a Oriental rug made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 1.07 m², or 4.3' × 2.7'.

Construction

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

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. At this size it works as an entryway mat or a bedside rug.

On the knot count

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 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.
