Nain Persian Rug 312 × 425 cm in Wool & Silk, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Nain comes from Iran and measures 312 × 425 cm. The covered area is about 13.26 m² (10.2' × 13.9'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Materials and construction

The pile is 100% Schurwolle mit Seide, on a warp of 100% cotton. Construction method: hand-knotted.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. A large format for open-plan rooms or formal reception spaces.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 1,000,000+ knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

How it reads

It is catalogued under Weiß / beige. Silk takes light differently from wool, so the same area can look pale from one side and deep from the other.
