The piece in short
This Qom comes from Iran and measures 83 × 119 cm. It covers approximately 0.99 m², or 2.7' × 3.9'. Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.
Materials and construction
Construction: 100% silk in the pile over a 100% silk foundation. Construction method: hand-knotted.
Size and placement
A small format, at home in a hallway, beside a bed, or in front of a bench.
Fineness of the knotting
The stated knot density is 900,000–999,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
How it reads
It is catalogued under multicolour. Silk takes light differently from wool, so the same area can look pale from one side and deep from the other.
