Hopa Rug Ref 708017
This antique rural handwoven rug, measuring 276 × 144 cm with an area of 3.98 square meters, is a rare example of Zanjan weavings featuring the authentic Houpa design, dating back approximately 40 years. Its large scale and rectangular format create a strong and distinctive presence, making it a striking choice for halls or more open interior spaces. The Lachak–Toranj structure, composed entirely of geometric motifs, reflects the abstract and order-oriented mindset of the region’s weavers; these motifs extend across the field and borders with a cohesive rhythm. A knot density of 30 raj provides a balanced relationship between visual refinement and structural strength, while the wool pile combined with cotton warp and weft ensures durability and high functional performance. The deep navy ground lends the rug a weighty and authentic character, and the blue border introduces a gentle contrast that results in a harmonious and enduring color composition. With an approximate weight of 16 kg and 4 kg per square meter, this rug is fully suitable for long-term use.
