Wool Qashqai Persian Rug 178 × 275 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 178 × 275 cm — a Qashqai made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 4.9 m² (5.8' × 9').

Construction

The pile is 100% new wool, on a warp of 100% cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted.

Size and placement

A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

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.

On the colourway

Colour is recorded as red and orange. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
