At a glance

Origin Iran, format 280 × 180 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. That is roughly 5.04 m² of floor, about 9.2' × 5.9'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Format and use

A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

Fineness of the knotting

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.

How it reads

The stated colourway is blue / Türkis. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
