About This Ravar
Where it comes from
This is a Ravar Kerman, 242 x 149 cm (7'11" x 4'11"), from the small town of Ravar near the city of Kerman in Iran — a weaving centre whose finest work trades under the name Lavar Kerman and has been sought after since the Qajar era for its fine detail and its calm balance of medallion, border and colour.
What you see
The field is a soft sage green against ivory, and within it sits a large oval medallion holding a flowering tree, its branches thick with coral-pink and salmon blossoms. Small birds are settled among the leaves, and half-hidden further in is a slighter figure that could be a deer or gazelle moving through the tree. The medallion floats on an ivory spandrel field, framed by a wide, dark navy-black border dense with the same coral flowers and soft blue-grey leaves, closed at each edge by a narrow cream guard stripe.
How it was made
The warp is cotton, the pile hand-spun wool, and the whole is hand-knotted at a density of 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre — fine enough to give the birds and the smaller figures in the branches clean, separate outlines rather than a blurred suggestion of them. The pile is clipped to twelve millimetres, low enough to keep every outline crisp, and the hand-spun wool catches the light unevenly rather than with a uniform gloss, which is why the surface has a quiet shimmer rather than a shine.
At home
At this size the rug belongs in a living room, set in front of a sofa or gathered into a seating area rather than lost under a dining table. The sage and ivory lift a room with darker furniture, while the coral blossoms keep the palette from turning cold, and the dense, tightly clipped wool underfoot takes daily use without complaint. As the light moves across it through the day, the birds among the branches seem to come forward one at a time.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 242 × 149 cm (3.61 m²) this is a medium rug. It works in front of a sofa, in front of a bed or in a study. It is too small for a dining table — there you want about 80 cm of clearance so a chair does not tip over the edge when pushed back.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre; across 3.61 m² that is roughly 1.2 to 1.4 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.
