The piece in short
Hand-knotted in Iran: a Heriz of 430 × 100 cm. That is roughly 4.3 m² of floor, about 14.1' × 3.3'. Heriz rugs usually carry a bold, angular central medallion.
What it is made of
Construction: wool, silk in the pile over a cotton foundation. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap. 10 kg.
Size and placement
The rug is rectangular. Large enough to hold a full seating group.
Knot density and quality
The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.
On the colourway
Colour is recorded as red and orange. Silk takes light differently from wool, so the same area can look pale from one side and deep from the other.
Age and condition
Stated age: antique. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
