ABOUT THIS PIECE

Masterfully Handwoven in Chahar Mahl region of western Persia.

Woven using fine locally sourced handspun wool and all-natural dyes, this Antique carpet still maintains fine vivid Abrash colours with a uniform short pile.

The region of Chaharmahal on the slopes of Mount Zardkuh is famous for producing some of the most unique and hardy village rugs of Persia. Featuring a unique combination of geometric village/ nomadic motifs and floral designs inspired by floral motifs of nearby Isfahan they are famous for their character and individuality as well as the use of high-quality Wool and dyestuff.

SIZE AND FIT

How it sits in your room.

200 × 110 CM (6'7" × 3'7"), DRAWN TO SCALE WITH TYPICAL AUSTRALIAN FURNITURE SIZES.

LIVING ROOM
3-SEATERTABLE
Better as an accent

Small beside a 3-seater sofa. It suits a reading corner, under an armchair or across an entry better than a sofa setting.

DINING ROOM
TABLE
Too small for this table

Only 15 cm of rug would show beyond even a four-seat table, so the chairs would sit off it. This one belongs in a living room or bedroom.

BEDROOM
QUEEN
Narrow for a queen bed

Only 24 cm of rug would show either side of a queen bed. It works, but 45 cm or more looks settled. At the foot of the bed it suits well.

YOUR ROOM

Measure the room, or just the area the rug should cover, and we will draw this rug in it to scale.
