About This Dorokhsh

Dorokhsh rugs come from the small town of Dorokhsh in the hills of South Khorasan Province, eastern Iran, the name means "luster" in Persian, reflecting the subtle surface glow these pieces are known for. Knotted with the asymmetrical (Persian) knot on cotton or wool foundations, they represent the refined end of Khorasan weaving.

All-over boteh (paisley) repeats and tree-of-life compositions are among the most characteristic designs, rendered in understated crimson, beige, and dark blue with secondary tones of pistachio and olive. The refined colour palette and elegant drawing make Dorokhsh pieces exceptionally decorator-friendly.

Questions about this rug

Which room is this rug for?

At 225 × 177 cm (3.98 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 3.98 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.
