About this rug
A Bakhtiari from Iran, measuring 191 × 127 cm. The covered area is about 2.43 m² (6.3' × 4.2').
Construction
The pile is wool, silk, on a warp of cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 10 kg.
Size and placement
The rug is rectangular. This size typically covers the floor in front of a seating group.
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.
On the colourway
Colour is recorded as red and orange. Silk takes light differently from wool, so the same area can look pale from one side and deep from the other.
Age
Stated age: antique. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
