Nain Persian Rug 93 × 309 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 93 × 309 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 2.87 m², or 3.1' × 10.1'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Construction

The pile is 100% new wool, on a warp of 100% cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Where it fits

The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

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.

How it reads

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