The blue ring around the pink core gives this cream rug a charming center. Worked on a cream field, dainty scrolling vines carry steel blue leaves, rust blossoms and small rosettes. A handsome lobed medallion has a blue ring around a pink core, with small blue pendants above and below. Beyond the large blue oval, small brown clusters mark the corners. The main border is cream, carrying brown flower heads between blue vines. Narrow tan and blue bands edge it on both sides. The pile is mostly even, with scattered white specks where it has worn thin in the field. The pale center suits a large room, while the blue ring adds a cool edge. At 8'2" by 11'11", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.
Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
About Nain rugs
Carpet weaving was revived in Isfahan in the second quarter of the 20th century and expanded rapidly, making carpets for the European market. By the middle of the 20th century Nain was producing carpets of the Isfahan kind in an extremely fine weave. Few Persian towns built their weaving reputation in the twentieth century rather than centuries earlier, and Nain is one of them. This rug shows fine vine work on a cream ground, with a blue ring around the medallion. The cream border and its brown flower heads keep the whole rug pale.

Returns & exchangesMade entirely by hand.
Every knot in this rug was tied by hand, one at a time, on an upright loom. A piece like this is the work of two or three weavers sitting side by side for months, wool worked row by row into a pattern carried from memory, its colors softened by decades of light and use. Nothing about it was quick, and no two are ever the same.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
