Kork wool on cotton
"Kork wool on cotton" is a Materiality label in our listings: a pile of kork, fine down wool, on a cotton foundation. Modern Kerman carpets are built this way: Iranica notes that most are woven with locally produced kork, and Britannica that their foundation is now all cotton. See kork for what the word covers.
