Nain Persian Rug 194 × 290 cm, Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

Origin Iran, format 194 × 290 cm — a Nain made entirely by hand. The covered area is about 5.63 m² (6.4' × 9.5'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

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

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

Colour and appearance

It is catalogued under blue / Türkis. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
