Lori rugs are woven by the Lur people of Lorestan Province in the Zagros Mountains of western Iran, a semi-nomadic tribe with over three thousand years of weaving heritage. Constructed on cotton or traditional wool foundations, these robust tribal pieces feature bold geometric designs in rich, saturated colours drawn from natural dyes.
Diamond medallions, hexagonal motifs, and stylised animals appear in deep indigos, warm reds, and earthy browns, colours that reflect the rugged mountain terrain. The thick, lustrous pile from hand-spun highland wool provides exceptional warmth and durability underfoot.
More on Lori-Pars rugs: origin, making and how to recognise a genuine piece
Measuring 331 × 249 cm, with an area of 8.24 m², crafted from Hand-spun Wool, Hand-knotted, this piece is a testament to masterful craftsmanship. The knot density of 201,000 – 250,000 / m² speaks to the extraordinary care woven into every inch.
Preserved in perfect condition, authentic nomadic character with lasting warmth, lori rugs bring the spirit of the zagros mountains into your home.
Fine quality weave
At 331 × 249 cm (8.24 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.
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre; across 8.24 m² that is roughly 1.7 to 2.1 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
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.
