Vintage Persian Nain 34.5″ x 51.5″ D0294, with silk highlights
Vintage Persian Nain 34.5″ x 51.5″ D0294, with silk highlights
Vintage Nain with Wool and Silk Pile Dim: 34.5"x51.5" Condition: Excellent Remarks: These Persian Oriental rugs are woven in and around the city of Nain in central Persia in Isfahan province, approximately 60 miles to the east of the city of Isfahan. They are relatively new compared to the antique rugs of ancient weaving centers such as Kashan, . All Nain rugs are knotted by hand using asymmetrical Persian knots with wool and silk pile on a cotton warp. In the 1920's Nain was one of the areas that produced Isfahan carpets in skilled workshops. Then beginning in the 1930s it developed it's own identity and reputation for very fine precise workshop carpets woven on a cotton foundation. In fact the word Nain is sometimes used in Iran as a synonym for 'fine'. Nains are classified in the trade today based on how many threads make up the warp. If one were to take a single strand of the fringe and pull it apart (unravel it) one would find either two or three threads in the one strand of fringe. the fewer the number of strands, the finer the rug.
