Persian Hamadan

£295£395In stock, ready to ship

A charming all-wool Persian Hamadan hand-knotted in western Iran — crafted entirely from premium wool, both the rich, velvety pile and the sturdy foundation. This all-wool construction gives the rug a wonderfully deep, soft, resilient feel underfoot that ages beautifully, growing richer with every year of use. A graceful floral medallion blooms at the centre, set against a luminous ivory field that makes the colours glow — surrounded by an intricate lattice of tiny flowers, leaves, and star motifs in madder red, sage green, and warm terracotta. The border is a colourful tapestry of repeating florals and geometric shapes, woven in deep navy, golden ochre, and blush pink — framing the design with exceptional depth and character. At 120 × 80 cm, this is a perfectly compact, versatile accent — ideal beside a single bed, in an entryway, under a small console table, or to add instant warmth to a study or reading nook. The bright, welcoming palette brings life to neutral rooms and sits beautifully alongside wood and classic furniture — a genuine hand-knotted Persian treasure in a beautifully practical size.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 125 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 186,000 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 3 months.

How that is worked out: 47 in × 31 in × 125 knots per sq. in. ≈ 186,000 — that is 120 × 80 cm converted to inches, because knot density is counted per square inch.

Magnify past 13× and the field stops being a picture and becomes what it actually is: rows of individual knots, each one a decision about colour made at a particular moment.

The same test works in the shop, on any rug, with no equipment. We wrote up how to do it in the back of the rug tells you everything.
