Nain Persian Rug 83 × 126 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Nain of 83 × 126 cm. The covered area is about 1.05 m² (2.7' × 4.1'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Construction

Construction: 100% new wool in the pile over a 100% cotton foundation. It is entirely hand-knotted.

Format and use

A small format, at home in a hallway, beside a bed, or in front of a bench.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 900,000–999,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

How it reads

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