Nain Persian Rug 103 × 144 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Nain comes from Iran and measures 103 × 144 cm. That is roughly 1.48 m² of floor, about 3.4' × 4.7'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Materials and construction

Pile material is given as 100% new wool, warp as 100% cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Size and placement

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

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 500,000–599,999 knots/m². A knot count at this level belongs to the upper quality class of handmade rugs.

On the colourway

Colour is recorded as Weiß / beige. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
