Hand-Knotted Wool Nain Persian Rug, 300 × 210 cm

The piece in short

A Nain from Iran, measuring 300 × 210 cm. The covered area is about 6.3 m² (9.8' × 6.9'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Where it fits

At this size it anchors a living room as the central surface.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

How it reads

The stated colourway is red and orange, black and grey. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
