About This Rafsanjan
Where it comes from
This is a Rafsanjan, a rug from the wider Kerman weaving region of Iran, 337 x 242 cm (11'1" x 7'11"). Kerman rugs are known for elegant floral drawing and a generous, formal presence, the kind of piece built to anchor a room. Rafsanjan carries that same vocabulary, and in this piece the floral drawing runs with an unusual continuity from field to medallion to border.
What you see
The first impression is a deep navy field, dense with fine floral scrollwork, and at its centre a large ivory medallion, its core softened by pale pink and blue. Rust-red spandrels fill the corners, echoing the medallion's warmth. The border is unusually wide, carrying the same scrollwork at nearly the same density as the field, held in by thin rust-red guard stripes. Rather than reading as separate zones, field, medallion and border flow into one another as a single continuous pattern.
How it was made
That continuity comes from fine, patient knotting. At 501,000 to 640,000 knots per square metre, the weavers at Sherkat Farsh could hold the scrollwork to the same fine scale across field, medallion and border, so the drawing never thins or coarsens. The pile is handspun wool on a cotton warp, kept low at 12 mm, which keeps the small floral details crisp rather than soft. Knotting at this density is months of steady work at the loom.
At home
A rug this size suits a dining room table or a living room seating group. The navy ground holds its own against dark wood, while the ivory medallion and border lift a paler floor toward warmth. Underfoot the pile is dense and firm, made for daily use rather than kept for best. Light moves across the fine scrollwork through the day, always catching something new.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 337 × 242 cm (8.16 m²) this is a very large rug. It carries a whole seating group with every furniture leg on it, or a dining table with the chairs pushed back. In a small room it becomes the floor rather than a rug.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 501,000 to 640,000 knots per square metre; across 8.16 m² that is roughly 4.1 to 5.2 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
Hand-spun wool still carries its own lanolin, which keeps liquid sitting on the surface for a moment: blot quickly, with clear water and a light cloth, working inwards and without rubbing. Otherwise regular vacuuming along the pile is enough. Turn the rug once or twice a year so light and footfall reach it evenly.
