The piece in short
A Qom from Iran, measuring 82 × 119 cm. It covers approximately 0.98 m², or 2.7' × 3.9'. Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.
Materials and construction
Stated material: silk, Seidenkette.
Size and placement
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 900,000–999,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
Colour and appearance
Colour is recorded as multicolour. Silk takes light differently from wool, so the same area can look pale from one side and deep from the other.
