Wool Nain Persian Rug 209 × 309 cm, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 209 × 309 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. That is roughly 6.46 m² of floor, about 6.9' × 10.1'. 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. Construction method: hand-knotted.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. Large enough to hold a full seating group.

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

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