Nain Persian Rug 200 × 200 cm, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 200 × 200 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 4 m², or 6.6' × 6.6'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp.

Where it fits

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

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 700,000–799,999 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 black and grey. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
