Wool Nain Persian Rug 116 × 88 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 116 × 88 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. That is roughly 1.02 m² of floor, about 3.8' × 2.9'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. Pile height is given as Normal.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. A small format, at home in a hallway, beside a bed, or in front of a bench.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

How it reads

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