About this rug
This Qom comes from Iran and measures 160 × 110 cm. The covered area is about 1.76 m² (5.2' × 3.6'). Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.
Materials and construction
Pile material is given as silk, warp as silk. Construction method: hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 6 kg.
Format and use
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 1,000,000+ knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
How it reads
The stated colourway is multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
Condition
Stated age: antique. As an antique piece, condition should be judged against its age.
