Overview

This Shiraz comes from Iran and measures 223 × 315 cm. It covers approximately 7.02 m², or 7.3' × 10.3'. Shiraz rugs come from a nomadic weaving tradition.

Construction

Pile material is given as 100% new wool, warp as 100% cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Size and placement

A format for large rooms, with space for an entire seating arrangement.

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.
