About This Ravar
Where it comes from
This is a Ravar, known in the trade as a Lavar Kerman, from the town of Ravar near Kerman in Persia — a source that has stood for the finest end of Kerman weaving since the Qajar era. At 247 x 160 cm (8'1" x 5'3"), it is sized for a room rather than a hall, and it carries the type's reputation for fine detail and quiet, considered colour.
What you see
From a distance the field reads as pure texture, a night-blue so deep it borders on black. Closer in, that texture resolves into a dense tree-and-vine lattice — ivory flowerheads, brick-red and salmon blossoms, gold and mustard foliage. Near mid-height on the right, two small birds sit in the vine, the one pictorial note in an otherwise botanical field. A wide gold-ground border, dense with red and cream floral sprays and edged by a blue guard stripe, frames the field, with no medallion at its centre.
How it was made
This density depends on knot count: 321,000 to 380,000 knots to the square metre, enough to draw each flowerhead and leaf edge with real precision. The pile is hand-spun wool, clipped short at 12 mm, which keeps those outlines crisp rather than blurred under a deeper pile. Fine knotting on a cotton foundation is what keeps a field this dark legible instead of collapsing into a single block of colour — work that took months rather than weeks.
At home
In a bedroom or a quieter seating area, this near-black field grounds the room rather than dominating it, and sits particularly well against pale floors, where the gold border keeps it from reading too sombre. Underfoot the hand-spun wool is dense and firm, made for daily use rather than a room kept for best. With a lamp nearby, the eye keeps returning to the birds hidden in the vine.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 247 × 160 cm (3.95 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 3.95 m² that is roughly 1.3 to 1.5 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.
