ABOUT THIS PIECE

Handwoven by Qoltoq nomads of Zanjan, northwestern Persia.

Woven from fine local handspun wool, on a durable cotton foundation, using all-natural dyes to achieve a beautiful unique Abrash colouring,

A highly desired quality, Abrash refers to when different shades of the same colour are present on a carpet, revealing expert use of dyes and small scale manufacturing of the carpet.

SIZE AND FIT

How it sits in your room.

160 × 110 CM (5'3" × 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
At the foot of the bed

Narrower than a queen bed, so it sits across the foot of the bed, tucked 20 cm under. A pair of runners either side is the other way to dress a bed this size.

YOUR ROOM

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