Nain Persian Rug 141 × 214 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

This Nain comes from Iran and measures 141 × 214 cm. That is roughly 3.02 m² of floor, about 4.6' × 7'. Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Where it fits

Large enough to hold a full seating group.

Knot density and quality

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.

Colour and appearance

The stated colourway is Weiß / beige. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
