Samarkand Pakistani Rug 174 × 237 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Pakistan: a Samarkand of 174 × 237 cm. The covered area is about 4.12 m² (5.7' × 7.8').

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

How it reads

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.
