Wool & Silk Nain Persian Rug 84 × 131 cm, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 84 × 131 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 1.1 m² (2.8' × 4.3'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

Construction: 100% Schurwolle mit Seide in the pile over a 100% cotton foundation. It is entirely hand-knotted.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. Small enough to sit in front of a dresser or just inside a door.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 700,000–799,999 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 Weiß / beige. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
