Wool Qom Persian Rug 164 × 110 cm, hand-knotted

Overview

This Qom comes from Iran and measures 164 × 110 cm. That is roughly 1.8 m² of floor, about 5.4' × 3.6'. Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.

Materials and construction

The pile is wool, on a warp of cotton. Construction method: hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 6 kg.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

Knot density and quality

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.

On the colourway

It is catalogued under Weiß / beige. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.

Age and condition

Stated age: contemporary, 0–20 years old. As a contemporary piece the pile is still even and largely unwalked.
