This elegant Nain rug reflects the refined aesthetic that has made these weavings among the most admired of the workshop carpet tradition. Woven on a luminous ivory field, the design centers on a delicate floral medallion surrounded by an exceptionally graceful network of scrolling arabesques, palmettes, and finely drawn flowering vines. A restrained palette of ivory, sapphire, powder blue, taupe, and soft celadon creates an atmosphere of quiet sophistication while allowing the intricate drawing to take center stage. The composition is framed by multiple finely articulated borders, including a richly ornamented main border of scrolling vines and stylized blossoms that echoes the elegance of the field. The exceptionally fine weave and clipped, velvety wool pile produce remarkable clarity and precision, while subtle silk highlights add gentle luminosity and depth throughout the design. Balanced proportions, crisp drawing, and a harmonious color palette make this an exceptionally versatile rug, equally at home in both traditional and contemporary interiors. This rug has been professionally cleaned and carefully prepared, as are all rugs in our collection, and presents beautifully with only light rust stains, old moth damage near the edges.
