8 foot 11 inch by 12 foot 2 inches.
This Kashan Carpet is more than just floor covering. It is a work of art. Floral Persian city carpets like this one are some of my very favorite carpets. The white guard borders with the blue main border and red field creates a balance and symmetry that makes this one of the most attractive Persian Carpets.
USE - This is ideal for a living room or dining room. It is fairly thick and is full pile so it should stand up very well for many years.
