About This Nain
Where it comes from
This is a Nain, also written Na'in, a fine city-workshop rug from the town of Nain in central Iran, long recognised for pairing silk highlights with fine wool. At 357 x 268 cm (11'9" x 8'10"), it is a substantial piece. Nain weavers work to a graded scale of fineness known as La, and pieces of this quality sit among the most sought-after of all Persian rugs.
What you see
The overall impression is of an ivory ground worked edge to edge in fine steel-blue floral scrollwork, so dense that it reads more as texture than as separate motifs. At the centre sits a small medallion, a rosette in the same restrained palette, understated enough that it almost disappears into the pattern around it rather than commanding the field. Small touches of rust-brown and dusty pink lift individual flowers. The border carries a chain of palmettes and vine in steel-blue, closed by a plain sandy-beige band that frames the field without overpowering it.
How it was made
That effect comes directly from the way the rug is made. The pile is wool lifted with silk, and silk spins far thinner than wool, so the finest outlines and centres can be knotted crisp rather than blurred. Hand-knotted at 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre onto a cotton warp, the density lets a scrolling pattern this fine repeat cleanly across the whole field rather than resolve into one dominant shape. That is exactly why the medallion here stays quiet instead of taking over.
At home
A rug this size settles into a living or dining room, laid under a table or in front of a sofa group, where the ivory ground lifts a pale floor and holds its own against darker furniture. The fine wool and silk pile, twelve millimetres deep, is firm and even underfoot, suited to daily use rather than a room kept for best. As daylight moves across it through the day, the blue scrollwork lifts and settles, and the small medallion at its centre is the detail you keep noticing rather than one that greets you at the door.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 357 × 268 cm (9.57 m²) this is a very large rug. It carries a whole seating group with every furniture leg on it, or a dining table with the chairs pushed back. In a small room it becomes the floor rather than a rug.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre; across 9.57 m² that is roughly 4.2 to 4.8 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
This pile contains silk and is more delicate than pure wool. Vacuum without a rotating brush and along the pile, do not beat it, and keep it out of permanent direct sun. Blot spills at once with a light cloth, never rub. For a proper clean a silk-blend rug belongs in expert hands — we handle that for pieces bought from us.
