About This Lori-Pars
Where it comes from
This is a Lori-Pars, a nomadic weaving from the Zagros mountains of Persia, measuring 203 x 154 cm (6'8" x 5'1"). Lori rugs, sometimes written Luri, are known for bold, simplified motifs and confident colour, knotted from memory rather than from a drawn plan. This piece takes that same freehand tradition and turns it quiet.
What you see
The field is a warm goldbeige, reading as a single tone from across a room. Look closer and a grid of nested rectangular panels appears, each outlined in a slightly darker ochre-brown, one square set inside the next. There is no medallion, no centre to rest on; the eye follows the lattice outward instead. A narrow sandy-beige border closes the design, barely darker than the field itself, so the rug reads as one continuous surface.
How it was made
This rug is hand-knotted from wool spun by hand before it was dyed, and hand-spun yarn rarely takes colour with perfect evenness — which is why a faint vertical striation runs through the field, lighter and darker by turns. It is knotted at 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre, dense enough to give it weight underfoot without the fineness of a city workshop. Because the grid was drawn from memory rather than from a paper plan, the rectangles sit close together but never quite identical, line to line.
At home
At just over two by one and a half metres, this rug suits a living room or a study, under a chair group or in front of a desk. The goldbeige warms a pale floor and holds its own against dark wood, settling into a room rather than competing with it. Underfoot it is dense and firm, wool spun thick enough for daily use, and as daylight moves across it the vertical striation catches the light differently through the day, so the quiet grid never looks quite the same twice.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 203 × 154 cm (3.13 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 3.13 m² that is roughly 630,000 to 780,000 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.
