The Isfahan Nain rugs are still valued as beautiful Persian carpets around the world and have come to represent wealth. Their ideal harmony, symmetry, and elegance led to their rising appeal over time.
A prominent aspect of this woven rug is the central medallion, a common motif in Persian carpets. The medallion's elaborate decorations and floral patterns spread outward. This medallion design was inspired by Persian architecture, particularly those featured in mosques built during the Safavid era. The rug's field has been adorned with elaborate floral patterns, such as vines, palmettes, and blossoming flowers. Persian cultural values that honor harmony and beauty are reflected in these motifs, which stand for nature, heaven, and rebirth.
To provide an exquisite texture and shine, this Nain rug tends to be made of fine wool, combined with silk. In this rug, silk accents draw attention to the smaller details. The Persian knot is used to make this hand-knot Nain rug, enabling the creation of delicate patterns and intricate details. The accuracy of the pattern displays the artistry, ability, and experience of the weavers.
