Qum produces some of the finest silk carpets in Iran, working in pure silk at knot densities that place the craft closer to illustration than weaving. This miniature piece is knotted at 676 knots per square inch in 100 percent silk on silk. At 2 ft x 2 ft 9 in it is a collector format, made to be studied rather than used as a floor covering.
The deep blue and green ground has the shifting luminous quality that silk alone can produce. The colour reads differently from different angles, moving between teal and deep navy depending on the direction of the light. At 676 knots per square inch the detail in a piece this small is extraordinary.
In your home: Works framed as a wall textile, displayed on a console or in a collector cabinet. Suits studies, dressing rooms and any space where small objects of genuine craft are appreciated.
