The piece in short
Origin Iran, format 203 × 130 cm — a Isfahan made entirely by hand. That is roughly 2.64 m² of floor, about 6.7' × 4.3'. Isfahan has stood for exceptionally fine knotting for centuries.
Construction
The pile is silk, on a warp of silk. It is entirely hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 8 kg.
Size and placement
The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.
Knot density and quality
The stated knot density is 900,000–999,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
How it reads
It is catalogued under black and grey. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
Condition
Stated condition: Neu.
