Wool Shiraz Persian Rug 191 × 290 cm, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 191 × 290 cm — a Shiraz made entirely by hand. That is roughly 5.54 m² of floor, about 6.3' × 9.5'. Shiraz rugs come from a nomadic weaving tradition.

Construction

The pile is 100% new wool, on a warp of 100% cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted.

Format and use

A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

Colour and appearance

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.
