Hand-Knotted Nain Persian Rug, 255 × 308 cm, Wool

At a glance

Origin Iran, format 255 × 308 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 7.85 m², or 8.4' × 10.1'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

Construction: 100% new wool in the pile over a 100% cotton foundation. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Size and placement

A format for large rooms, with space for an entire seating arrangement.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 900,000–999,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

On the colourway

The stated colourway is blue / Türkis. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
