Hand-Knotted Persian Rug, 181 × 95 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 181 × 95 cm — a Oriental rug made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 1.72 m² (5.9' × 3.1').

Materials and construction

Stated material: new wool.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

How it reads

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.
