Shiraz Persian Rug 158 × 240 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 158 × 240 cm — a Shiraz made entirely by hand. That is roughly 3.79 m² of floor, about 5.2' × 7.9'. Shiraz rugs come from a nomadic weaving tradition.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. Construction method: hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Size and placement

At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

How it reads

The stated colourway is 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.
