This super fine Persian Nain rug, hand-knotted in the 4th quarter of the 1900s, is a breathtaking example of the elegance and technical mastery that has made Nain rugs world-renowned. Woven with a very high knot count, it features an intricate floral medallion pattern set on a luminous ivory background, framed by a soft pale tan border and enriched with delicate accents in French blue, pale brown, and ivory.

At its heart lies a rare and captivating “Gonbad” medallion—a two-dimensional interpretation of the intricate mosaic domes found in ancient Persian mosques. This architectural motif, combined with silk highlights woven throughout the design, brings an exceptional sense of depth and movement, especially under light, where the silk shimmers with incredible vibrancy.

The circular vine and floral patterning across the field echoes the aesthetic of classic Isfahan rugs, giving the piece a refined and harmonious flow. The corner spandrels, rendered in elegant blue with cream designs, complete the look with a touch of regal contrast.

Crafted with a wool pile on a cotton foundation and enriched by lustrous silk highlights, this Nain rug is not just a decorative piece—it's a collectible work of Persian textile art, combining spiritual symbolism, architectural influence, and masterful weaving into one timeless treasure.
