About This Lori-Pars
Where it comes from
This is a Lori-Pars, also written Luri, a nomadic weaving from the Zagros mountains of Fars province in southern Iran, 202 x 153 cm (6'8" x 5'0"). Lori rugs are knotted from memory rather than from a drawn plan, known for bold, simplified motifs and confident colour rather than fine detail. This one goes further: instead of the usual tribal ornament, it carries a modern brick-wall pattern, with no medallion and no traditional motif in sight.
What you see
A warm camel brown fills the field, arranged as a wall of staggered rectangular blocks in mixed browns. Between them run lines of strong mustard yellow, standing in for grout, and these are what the eye follows first, holding the whole pattern together. Look closer and each block carries its own faint striations, the wool never quite one flat brown. A narrow, undecorated border in ivory-beige closes the design, taking up perhaps a twentieth of the rug and enough to set the field apart.
How it was made
The pile is hand-spun wool, and hand-spinning never produces an even thread, which is why each brick block shows a faint variation in tone rather than sitting flat. At 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre the knot is open rather than fine, suited to a pile of 11 mm that holds its colour and shape underfoot. The density serves this design rather than working against it: a bold graphic pattern reads better in soft, slightly uneven blocks of colour than in a tight, flat weave.
At home
This suits a bedroom, somewhere the pattern can carry the room without competing with anything else. The camel brown warms a pale floor and holds against darker furniture, while the mustard lines keep it from ever looking flat. Underfoot the wool is soft, reasonably deep, and dense enough for daily footsteps rather than careful ones. As daylight moves across the room, the striations catch differently, so the brown never sits quite still.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 202 × 153 cm (3.09 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 3.09 m² that is roughly 620,000 to 770,000 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.
