Nain Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 128 × 200 cm, Wool & Silk

Overview

This Nain comes from Iran and measures 128 × 200 cm. The covered area is about 2.56 m² (4.2' × 6.6'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

Stated material: new wool, silk.

Format and use

This size typically covers the floor in front of a seating group.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 600,000–699,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

Colour and appearance

Colour is recorded as blue / Türkis, Weiß / beige. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
