About This Ravar

Where it comes from

A Ravar Kerman, 264 x 176 cm (8'8" x 5'9"), from the small town near Kerman that has supplied Persia's most refined weaving since the Qajar era. Ravar pieces, sold in the trade as Lavar Kerman, are prized for exactly this kind of balance: a central medallion, matching corner pieces, and a level of drawing that collectors treat as the benchmark for Kerman quality. What sets this one apart is its restraint. Where Ravar is usually shown on ivory or deep red, here the ground is a soft sage green, and the whole design reads quieter for it.

What you see

That sage field carries a central oval medallion in deep pink and rose, echoed by smaller pendant medallions at each corner, so the eye moves from the middle of the rug outward to its edges and back. Gold, ochre, dusty blue and cream sit inside the florals and give the medallion its depth without disturbing the calm of the field around it. A wide border of navy diamond lattice, worked through with the same florals, closes the design firmly, and ivory guard stripes hold that border apart from the sage ground. The surface has a light sheen, and the florals keep their edges sharp even at this scale.

How it was made

That sharpness comes from the knotting: 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre, tied by hand onto a cotton warp. At that density the outline of a small flower can be drawn in wool rather than approximated, which is why the medallion and its pendants keep their detail instead of blurring into the field. The pile itself is handspun wool, cut to 12 millimetres, short enough to hold that detail crisply and give the surface its soft, velvety look underfoot rather than a deep plush one.

At home

At this size the rug sits well under a dining table or in front of a sofa group, and the sage ground is the kind of colour that settles a room rather than commanding it, warming pale floors and standing quietly against darker furniture alike. The pile is dense and even, firm enough for daily use, soft enough to be worth walking on barefoot. In afternoon light the gold and rose in the medallion catch first, and that is the detail an owner comes to look for.

Questions about this rug

Which room is this rug for?

At 264 × 176 cm (4.65 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 4.65 m² that is roughly 1.5 to 1.8 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.
