Nain Persian Rug 395 × 288 cm in Wool & Silk, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 395 × 288 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. It covers approximately 11.38 m², or 13' × 9.4'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Materials and construction

Pile material is given as wool, silk, warp as cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 40 kg.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. A large format for open-plan rooms or formal reception spaces.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

On the colourway

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

Age and condition

Stated age: contemporary, 0–20 years old. As a contemporary piece the pile is still even and largely unwalked.
