The piece in short
A Oriental rug from Iran, measuring 25 × 22 cm. The covered area is about 0.06 m² (0.8' × 0.7').
Materials and construction
Weft material is given as wool, warp as cotton. It is entirely hand-woven. Weight is given as approx. 2 kg.
Size and placement
The rug is rectangular. At this size it works as an entryway mat or a bedside rug.
How it is made
As a flatweave this piece has no pile: front and back carry the same pattern, and it lies very flat.
Colour and appearance
Colour is recorded as red and orange. 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. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
