Hand-Knotted Nain Persian Rug, 84 × 126 cm, Wool

At a glance

This Nain comes from Iran and measures 84 × 126 cm. That is roughly 1.06 m² of floor, about 2.8' × 4.1'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

The pile is 100% new wool, on a warp of 100% cotton. 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.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 500,000–599,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

How it reads

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.
