History of the Nain carpets
Although not a very old carpet weaving town, Nain is well established and one of the most popular carpet production centers in the world Iran. She inherited most of her skills from the very old and neighboring city of Isfahan, which also produces very beautiful carpets. The manners and customs have hardly changed here in the last century. For many generations, until just before the Second World War in the 1930s, the people of Nain produced high-quality handmade woolen cloth, which was used to make traditional religious and secular clothing and fine woolen overcoats. After the war, Iranians started making carpets of the highest quality. After the war, Iranians began to adopt western styles of clothing and the market for textiles made in Nain declined. Thus the sophisticated knowledge and skills of the Nain textile industry were transferred to the manufacture of handmade carpets. Nain's reputation for weaving of the highest quality has been restored in modern times.
Construction of Nain carpets
Nain rugs are hand-knotted by skilled master weavers, who take several years to complete a single rug. Although very similar in appearance to Isfahan rugs, they are easily identified and recognized by their distinctive color combination and smooth, well-cut pile. Nain rugs typically feature a sweeping, arabesque floral design in blue, green, and white on a warm beige or ivory background. Nain with more than 300-500 knots per square inch are not uncommon. Only wool and silk of excellent quality are used on a base of fine cotton or silk. The Nain rug is a precious treasure that brings elegance to any room and whose beauty will forever remain priceless.
