Story Behind the Art: Nain rugs, originating from the town of Nain near Isfahan, are world-renowned for their technical finesse and elegance. Traditionally woven with wool piles on sturdy cotton foundations, many fine examples include silk inlays to highlight their intricate motifs. Their knot counts are exceptionally high, often surpassing 500 per square inch, allowing artisans to produce extraordinary clarity and detail. Designs frequently include delicate medallions, arabesques, and scrolling floral patterns that echo Isfahan traditions but with a lighter, more restrained aesthetic. The hallmark of Nain rugs lies in their serene palettes of ivory, cream, and soft or deep blues, accented occasionally by beige or burgundy. These Oriental rugs combine harmony, refinement, and collectible value, treasured as both décor and works of art.
