Acquire the pinnacle of Persian weaving with this 9.7 x 13.8 Super High Quality 70 Raj Authentic Persian Tabriz Rug. Hand-knotted in Iran's historic carpet capital, this masterpiece represents the absolute zenith of Tabriz craftsmanship. The "Raj" number is a unique Persian measure of fineness—the higher the Raj, the finer the rug, as it indicates knot density . A 70 Raj rug is exceptionally fine, corresponding to approximately 500,000 to 1,000,000 knots per square meter, or roughly 500 KPSI. This extraordinary density allows master weavers to achieve the sharp, clear, and impossibly intricate curvilinear designs that make Tabriz rugs among the world's most desirable .
Expertly hand-knotted using the durable Turkish (symmetrical) knot, this rug is crafted from premium hand-spun wool and natural silk on a silk foundation—a "silk-on-silk" construction that creates unparalleled depth and a luminous sheen . The wool, often the finest "Kork" wool from the lamb's neck, provides a warm, resilient, and dirt-repellent pile, while the silk foundation and highlights catch and reflect light, giving the intricate motifs a shimmering quality that changes with the viewing angle . Such a fine weave is necessary to create delicate curves and arabesques, often in classic medallion or all-over floral patterns .
Generously sized at 9.7 x 13.8 feet, this rug is ideally suited to anchor a grand formal living room, dining area, or master bedroom. This is not merely a floor covering but a functional work of art and an investment-grade heirloom, designed to bring timeless elegance and cultural richness to your home for generations.
