At a glance
Origin Iran, format 312 × 204 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. That is roughly 6.36 m² of floor, about 10.2' × 6.7'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.
Construction
Construction: wool in the pile over a cotton foundation. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap. 18 kg.
Format and use
The rug is rectangular. At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.
Fineness of the knotting
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.
On the colourway
The stated colourway is Weiß / beige. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
Condition
Stated age: antique. As an antique piece, condition should be judged against its age.
