Hand-knotted Qom Oriental Rug in Silk, 370 × 275 cm

Roughly 9.7 million knots tied by hand into 10.18 m² — a Qom rug, 370 × 275 cm. What marks a Qom is the drawing: crowded, precise, and usually laid out around a medallion or a panelled field. The stated density is 900,000-999,999 knots/sqm — a density normally reserved for master workshop pieces. Pile 100% silk &, warp 100% cotton. A silk pile shifts tone as you move past it — the same field reads light from one side of the room and dark from the other. At 10.18 m² it takes a sofa and two chairs with the front legs on the rug. Proportion 1.35:1. Every rug here is a single piece — there is no second one in this size and colour.
