ABOUT THIS PIECE
Finely Handwoven in the famous village of Esfandeghe, Kerman
Handwoven using fine local handspun wool and 100% natural dyes, generating beautiful Abrash colouring and a thick lustrous pile.
Woven in an improvised iteration of the Golfarang motif, depicting Rose bushes with various small differences and intricacies.
Golfarang or European flower is a motif created by the effects of 18th/19th-century European art on Persian carpets.
SPECIFICATIONS
How it sits in your room.
200 × 140 CM (6'7" × 4'7"), DRAWN TO SCALE WITH TYPICAL AUSTRALIAN FURNITURE SIZES.
About the length of a 3-seater sofa, so it sits just in front of it with the coffee table on it. Floated like this it reads as a deliberate island rather than a rug that came up short.
Only 30 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.
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.
Measure the room, or just the area the rug should cover, and we will draw this rug in it to scale.
