Nain Persian Rug 82 × 121 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 82 × 121 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. That is roughly 0.99 m² of floor, about 2.7' × 4'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

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

Size and placement

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

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 500,000–599,999 knots/m². A knot count at this level belongs to the upper quality class of handmade rugs.

Colour and appearance

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