Wool & Silk Nain Persian Rug 60 × 84 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 60 × 84 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 0.5 m², or 2' × 2.8'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

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

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. At this size it works as an entryway mat or a bedside rug.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 700,000–799,999 knots/m². A knot count at this level belongs to the upper quality class of handmade rugs.

On the colourway

The stated colourway is multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
