The Distinction and History of Nain Rugs

Nain rugs are one of the most recognized and celebrated types of modern Persian carpets, highly valued for their delicate artistry and exceptional fineness.
A Modern Classic: While the city of Nain has a long history, its rug weaving tradition is relatively recent, flourishing in the mid-20th century (1930s-1940s). Weavers transitioned from making fine wool textiles to hand-knotting rugs, quickly establishing an international reputation for luxury.
The Master's Touch: The design style was heavily influenced by the sophisticated, classical patterns of nearby Isfahan but was adapted with an even greater technical fineness and a unique color palette. Key figures, such as Fatollah Habibian, are credited with establishing the high standards and style that define the Nain rug today.

Defining Characteristics:

High Knot Density: Nain rugs are known for extremely tight, fine knotting (often ⁶$300$ to ⁷$700+$ knots per square inch), allowing for incredible detail and clarity in the design.
Silk Highlights: A hallmark of Nain is the use of silk or fine, lustrous 'kork' wool (from the lamb's neck) for the pile, often with silk threads outlining the motifs to make them shimmer against the wool.
The Palette: They are famed for their graceful, lighter color scheme: typically an ivory or cream background with motifs in shades of pale blue, deep navy, and beige/brown.
"La" System of Quality: Nain rugs are uniquely graded by the number of threads used in their warp foundation, known as "La." A lower "La" number indicates a finer, higher-quality rug (e.g., 4-La is finer than 9-La).

This extra-large Nain rug is a rare and prestigious investment piece, showcasing the finest level of technical skill and elegant Persian design for a truly magnificent room.
