Hand-Knotted Wool Nain Persian Rug, 68 × 302 cm

Overview

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Nain of 68 × 302 cm. The covered area is about 2.05 m² (2.2' × 9.9'). Nain rugs are traditionally finely knotted, with pale ivory and blue palettes.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 7-10mm.

Size and placement

The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

Colour and appearance

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

Period

Stated condition: new.
