5598 · 7'10" x 11' Persian Nain Oversized Rug

Charming scrolling vines carry palmettes and rosettes across the cream field. Worked on a cream field, scrolling vines carry palmettes and rosettes in burgundy, steel blue and olive. At the center, a large star medallion is packed with fine floral forms, with small ornamental pendants above and below it. Vines curve into the four corners and gather in flower heads. The handsome main border carries a chain of teal and steel blue palmette shapes joined by near-black vines on a cream ground. Tan guard stripes of leaves and small buds in teal and brown edge it on both sides. The pile is low in places, and in a few spots the foundation shows through. Tightly packed motifs fill the pale palette, so the blue and burgundy notes stand out clearly. At 7'10" by 11', it fits a dining table for four with the chairs pulled out, or a living room with the sofa and chairs fully on it.

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.
