About the Item

77571 Vintage Persian Nain Wool and Silk Rug, 08'01 x 12'09. This exquisite hand-knotted wool and silk vintage Persian Nain rug showcases a harmonious fusion of artistry and tradition, woven with meticulous precision and a profound appreciation for Persian heritage. The intricate design begins with a central medallion featuring a concentric arrangement, accentuated by trefoil palmette pendants on either end. This medallion radiates elegance, anchored against a soft beige field that serves as the perfect backdrop for the masterful interplay of floral and botanical motifs. Each element of the design, from blooming palmettes to curved sickle leaves and lotus blossoms, is an ode to the natural beauty celebrated in Persian art. The all-over floral and botanical pattern fills the field with an abundance of leafy tendrils, floral sprigs, serrated leaves, and delicate arabesque vines. The precision and detail in each motif are astonishing, creating a sense of endless movement and organic flow. The corner spandrels are equally captivating, with elaborate florals and foliage sprouting gracefully to frame the central field. This visual rhythm is both dynamic and balanced, making the rug not only a decorative piece but also a celebration of Persian garden aesthetics. Encircling the design is a Shah Abbas border, a hallmark of Persian rug-making tradition, which is flanked by inner and outer guard bands. These borders are thoughtfully composed, elegantly uniting colors and motifs from throughout the rug into a unified and harmonious design. The Shah Abbas border, adorned with its intricate florals and scrolling vines, enhances the overall structure of the piece, drawing the eye toward the medallion while framing the composition with grace. The subdued hues of beige, subdued blue, soft gray, and accents of rust red create a palette that is both decadent and versatile, effortlessly elevating traditional interiors. This vintage Persian Nain rug is more than just a floor covering—it is a work of art steeped in history and cultural significance. The luxurious blend of wool and silk adds a subtle sheen and softness to the texture, enhancing the tactile experience while ensuring lasting durability. Ideal for complementing refined traditional furnishings, this woven wonder brings an air of timeless sophistication and elegance to nearly any space. A masterpiece of Persian craftsmanship, it invites you to revel in its beauty and the storied traditions it represents. Rendered in variegated shades of beige, taupe, gray, navy blue, tan, sky blue, ecru, maroon, brick red, terra cotta, dove gray, cornflower blue, olive, brass, burnt orange, mushroom, and pashmina with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool and silk. Made in Iran. Measures: 08'01 x 12'09. Date: 1960's. Mid-20th Century.
