Nain 9La | With Silk

Nain rugs originate from the town of Nain in Isfahan Province, central Iran, near the edge of the Dasht-e Kavir desert. Knotted with the asymmetrical (Persian) knot on a cotton foundation, they are renowned for their refined floral arabesques and the unmistakable ivory-and-blue palette that has become their signature.

Nain pieces use exceptionally fine wool, often highlighted with white silk threads that accentuate the floral details and lend a subtle sheen. Quality is graded by the "La" system, thread count per strand, where lower numbers (4La, 6La) indicate finer knotting and higher density. This particular piece has been enhanced with luxurious silk accents, lending the rug a subtle luminescence and exceptional tactile quality.
