Overview

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Tabriz of 81 × 57 cm. The covered area is about 0.46 m² (2.7' × 1.9'). Tabriz is one of the oldest and most important weaving centres in Persia.

Construction

Pile material is given as Handgesponnene Wolle, warp as cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap.2kg.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. Small enough to sit in front of a dresser or just inside a door.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 500,000–599,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

On the colourway

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.
