About This Khorasan
Where it comes from
This is a Khorasan rug, also written Khorassan, 292 x 255 cm (9'7" x 8'4"), from the historic weaving region of northeastern Iran once known as the land of the rising sun. Khorasan is known above all for large medallion compositions and Herati-inspired lattice patterns, traditionally worked in a strong red balanced against deep blue. Here the ground is neither: a deep bottle green.
What you see
The field carries a dense, all-over lattice of stylised rosettes and leaf forms, repeating without a medallion to anchor it, so the eye moves evenly across the whole surface rather than settling on a centre. Rust-terracotta and dusty blue pick out the diamonds against the green, with touches of dark navy set deep in the pattern. A wide ivory border frames the field, its ground carrying a running floral vine in rust and dark blue, and the whole is closed by narrow rust guard stripes on either side, so the border reads almost as three separate bands stacked one against the next.
How it was made
The pile is handspun wool, hand-knotted onto a cotton warp at a density of 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre, with a pile height of some 12 millimetres, close enough to hold a fine, even surface without becoming stiff. Handspun wool takes dye unevenly at a microscopic level, and it is this that gives the bottle green its depth, a colour that would sit flatter in a machine-spun yarn. The result is a tight, smooth pile with a light natural sheen, the kind of surface that only patient hand-knotting produces at this scale.
At home
A rug this size, close to three metres by two and a half, sits naturally in a dining room under a table and chairs, or anchoring a seating group in a living room. The bottle green is unusual for a Khorasan, and it works quietly here, holding its own against dark wood or leather furniture without competing for attention, and warming a pale floor rather than dominating it. Underfoot the pile is dense and firm, made to take daily use rather than sit as an ornament, so it suits a room that is actually walked through. As daylight moves across it, the sheen in the wool catches along the lattice lines, and the rust and ivory of the border stay warm even as the green settles into shadow toward evening.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 292 × 255 cm (7.45 m²) this is a large rug. It sits under a seating group with the front legs of sofa and chairs on it, or under a dining table for four. A table for six wants about 80 cm of clearance all round, and needs more.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
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 7.45 m² that is roughly 1.5 to 1.9 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.
