About This Ravar
Where it comes from
This is a Ravar Kerman, also written Lavar Kerman, 248 x 153 cm (8'2" x 5'0"), woven in the small town of Ravar near Kerman in Persia. Since the Qajar era, Ravar has produced some of the finest Kerman weaving, prized for its precise detail and for compositions built around a central medallion set within elaborate borders and corner fillings.
What you see
The field is an open, luminous ivory, an unusually spacious ground for a design of this weight, and it is dominated by a large octagonal medallion in deep red and sage green. Two smaller pendant medallions echo it above and below, giving the field a deliberate tripartite symmetry rather than the single centre most medallion rugs carry. Garlands of rose blossoms and floral sprays drift across the open ground between them, drawn in soft pink and gold scrollwork. A broad navy-blue floral border, edged by a red guard stripe, closes the composition and holds the pale field firmly in place.
How it was made
The pile is handspun wool, hand-knotted onto a cotton warp at a density of 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre, fine enough to draw the rose garlands and the medallion's edge with real precision, without needing to crowd the ground to do it. This is the quiet skill behind Ravar work: the detail comes from the tightness of the knot, not from filling every inch of the field. A short, even pile of 12 millimetres keeps that drawing sharp, with a soft sheen settling into the floral motifs rather than lying across the whole surface.
At home
At 248 x 153 cm, this is a rug for a bedroom, or a quieter seating corner rather than a large open room. The ivory ground lifts a pale floor and holds its own against dark furniture, while the navy border keeps the whole composition grounded even in a small space. Underfoot the pile is short, dense and firm, made for daily use rather than careful avoidance. As daylight moves across it through the day, the sheen settles into the rose garlands and the medallion first, drawing the eye back, again and again, to that same open, quiet centre.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 248 × 153 cm (3.79 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 3.79 m² that is roughly 1.2 to 1.4 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.
