The piece in short
A Qom from Iran, measuring 102 × 154 cm. That is roughly 1.57 m² of floor, about 3.3' × 5.1'. Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.
Materials and construction
Stated material: silk, Seidenkette.
Where it fits
The rug is rectangular. This size typically covers the floor in front of a seating group.
Fineness of the knotting
The stated knot density is 900,000–999,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
On the colourway
It is catalogued under multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
