Hand-Knotted Nain Persian Rug, 82 × 210 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Nain of 82 × 210 cm. The covered area is about 1.72 m² (2.7' × 6.9'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Materials and construction

Construction: 100% new wool in the pile over a 100% cotton foundation. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Size and placement

The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 900,000–999,999 knots/m². A knot count at this level belongs to the upper quality class of handmade rugs.

How it reads

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