The piece in short

Materials and construction

Pile material is given as Handgesponnene Wolle, warp as cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap. 10 kg.

Size and placement

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

How it reads
