Overview
A Nain from Iran, measuring 265 × 176 cm. The covered area is about 4.66 m² (8.7' × 5.8'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.
What it is made of
The pile is wool, on a warp of cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap. 12 kg.
Size and placement
The rug is rectangular. Large enough to hold a full seating group.
Knot density and quality
The stated knot density is 600,000–699,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.
Colour and appearance
It is catalogued under blue / Türkis. 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. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
