"Large Persian carpet in beautiful condition" - With certificate - Second half of the previous century - approx. 200,000 knots per m² - Hand-knotted.

This is a hand-knotted Mir rug, made of durable, natural materials. Imperfections in the patterns and shape make this rug unique and emphasise its authentic and traditional character.
Mir rugs are knotted in the mountainous area in and around Arak, in western Iran.

Characteristic for a Mir is the contemporary design, called Boteh or Paisley pattern, a droplet shape with the tip pointing in one direction. A Mir often has a continuous pattern, but some have a medallion and corner patterns.
Mir rugs are durable carpets, made of wool on a cotton warp (bobbin thread). They are often thick, full rugs with an exceptionally high durability.
This is a used rug, which has become more beautiful and richer in character as a result of the natural ageing process.
This rug was imported from Iran before 2000.
