Hand-Knotted Nain Persian Rug, 143 × 225 cm, Wool

The piece in short

This Nain comes from Iran and measures 143 × 225 cm. It covers approximately 3.22 m², or 4.7' × 7.4'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Where it fits

At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

On the knot count

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

Colour is recorded as Weiß / beige. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
