The piece in short
A Oriental rug from Russland, measuring 270 × 140 cm. The covered area is about 3.78 m² (8.9' × 4.6').
Materials and construction
The pile is wool, on a warp of cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap. 7 kg.
Where it fits
The rug is rectangular. Large enough to hold a full seating group.
On the knot count
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
It is catalogued under blue / Türkis. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
Age
Stated age: antique. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
