About This Khorasan
Where it comes from
This is a Khorasan, a medallion rug from the weaving towns of Iran's northeast, measuring 239 x 200 cm (7'10" x 6'7"). Khorasan rugs are known for grand, wide compositions and Herati-inspired florals, traditionally carried on a strong red ground balanced with blue. Here the region's usual richness is set aside for something quieter: an ivory field, framed by navy.
What you see
The eye meets pale cream before anything else, the field kept open around a central medallion and its pendants. Fine floral drawing in dusty rose, taupe and muted blue-grey fills the medallion, echoed by smaller floral clusters in each corner, so the field reads as balanced and almost mirrored. Ornate spandrels round out the corners. A broad navy border, dense with floral scrollwork, closes the composition, taking up close to a fifth of the rug's width and giving it its weight.
How it was made
The rug is hand-knotted, with a cotton warp and a pile of hand-spun wool, at a density of 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre. That is fine enough to carry the crisp floral lines of the medallion and border without blurring them, though not so fine that it turns brittle underfoot. The pile stands at 12 millimetres, clipped tight and even, which gives the surface its slightly flat, precise finish and a light sheen where the hand-spun wool catches the light.
At home
At 239 x 200 cm this suits a living or dining room, sized for a seating group or a modest table setting. The ivory field lifts a room with dark floorboards, while the navy border holds its own against dark furniture nearby. Underfoot it is dense and firm, made for daily use rather than careful stepping around. In the afternoon light the wool takes on a soft sheen, and the eye keeps returning to the navy scrollwork long after the rest of the room has settled.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 239 × 200 cm (4.78 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 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre; across 4.78 m² that is roughly 1.0 to 1.2 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.
