Wool & Silk Tabriz Persian Rug 203 × 155 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Tabriz comes from Iran and measures 203 × 155 cm. That is roughly 3.15 m² of floor, about 6.7' × 5.1'. Tabriz is one of the oldest and most important weaving centres in Persia.

Construction

Pile material is given as wool, warp as cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap. 8 kg.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

How it reads

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.

Condition

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