Hand-Knotted Nain Persian Rug, 133 × 206 cm, Wool

Overview

This Nain comes from Iran and measures 133 × 206 cm. The covered area is about 2.74 m² (4.4' × 6.8'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Materials and construction

The pile is 100% new wool, on a warp of 100% cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Size and placement

A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 500,000–599,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

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.
