Shiraz Persian Rug 221 × 307 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

At a glance

This Shiraz comes from Iran and measures 221 × 307 cm. That is roughly 6.78 m² of floor, about 7.3' × 10.1'. Shiraz rugs come from a nomadic weaving tradition.

Construction

Pile material is given as 100% new wool, warp as 100% cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. 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. This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

How it reads

The stated colourway is red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
