The Persian ([[Asymmetric Knot|asymmetric]]) knot is predominant. Some rare nineteenth-century Shiraz weavings were made with a silk weft, and these are of interest to collectors in the antique market.<br>
Shiraz formats range from small tribal bags to carpets approximately eighteen feet by twelve feet, but many are in small room sizes varying from close to ten feet by seven feet to eleven feet by eight feet.<ref>Moheban, 2015, p.531</ref><br>
