Hand-Knotted Qashqai Persian Rug, 187 × 106 cm, Wool

Overview

Origin Iran, format 187 × 106 cm — a Qashqai made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 1.98 m² (6.1' × 3.5').

What it is made of

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

Format and use

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 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

How it reads

It is catalogued under multicolour. 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.
