Hand-Knotted Shiraz Persian Rug, 215 × 301 cm, Wool

About this rug

Origin Iran, format 215 × 301 cm — a Shiraz made entirely by hand. That is roughly 6.47 m² of floor, about 7.1' × 9.9'. Shiraz rugs come from a nomadic weaving tradition.

What it is made of

Pile material is given as 100% new wool, warp as 100% cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted.

Where it fits

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

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

On the colourway

It is catalogued under 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.
