Handmade Persian Rug

Authentic Persian Qum Silk Rug – Hand-Knotted Masterpiece

This exquisite hand-knotted Persian Qum silk rug is a true example of the extraordinary craftsmanship for which the city of Qum, Iran, is world renowned. Rugs from this region are celebrated for their intricate artistry, exceptionally high knot density, and the use of luxurious natural silk, making them among the most sought-after Persian rugs in the world.

Expertly woven by skilled artisans, this rug features a remarkable 676 knots per square inch, demonstrating an outstanding level of precision and detail. With overall dimensions of 30 × 23 inches (690 square inches), the rug contains approximately 466,440 individual hand-tied knots, reflecting hundreds of hours of meticulous craftsmanship.

The intricate design displays elegant floral and ornamental motifs arranged in a harmonious and symmetrical composition, highlighted by delicate shades of ivory, turquoise, soft earth tones, and subtle accent colors. The fine silk fibers give the rug a luminous sheen that changes beautifully with the light, enhancing the depth and richness of the pattern.

Producing a rug of this complexity requires exceptional skill. A master weaver can typically complete around 500 knots per hour, meaning that weaving alone requires over 900 hours of work, not including the time needed for designing the pattern, preparing the loom, and dyeing the silk.

This rug is new and imported by Heaven on Earth Imports and comes with a certificate of origin, guaranteeing its authenticity as a genuine Persian handmade rug from Qum.

Elegant, collectible, and timeless, this fine silk Qum rug is suitable as a luxurious floor accent, a decorative wall piece, or a valuable addition to any rug collection.
