This carpet originates from Mashhad, one of the biggest cities of Iran and Persia. Mashhad carpets are known to be robust and enduring. Mostly they come in extraordinary large scales. A large genuine Persian carpet like this one requires a lot of skill and experience. Generally, it takes several months to craft such a carpet by hand in traditional handicraft.


Iran/Persia, Mashhad

Mashhad is a city of over a million inhabitants in eastern Iran. It is one of the holiest cities in Islam, attracting large numbers of pilgrims who visit the tomb of the eighth Imam. Hand-knotted Persian rugs from Mashhad are usually larger than average. As a rule, they feature a central medallion and have dark colour tones.

Hand-spun wool

This rug is made from hand-spun sheep’s wool of the highest quality. Wool is still spun by hand, especially in Iran (formerly Persia), Afghanistan and Pakistan, before the actual knotting of the rug begins. Over the centuries, wool has proven itself to be a natural and extremely hard-wearing material. Among other things, it has dirt-repellent and heat-insulating properties. At the same time, wool is incomparably soft and has a natural sheen.

Hand-knotted

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still represent the highest quality standard among all types of rug. Depending on the knotting technique, these rugs are extremely hard-wearing and can last for generations. The finer and denser a rug is knotted, the more detailed the ornaments and patterns that can be shown in the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires significantly more manual work, as well as a higher level of experience and skill from the weaver. Knot density is therefore also a key factor in the value of hand-knotted rugs. However, quality is not directly linked to knot density. A more coarsely knotted rug can still be made to an excellent standard.

Care & Fair

Following our ethical principles, we at Nain Trading are declared supporters of the organization CARE & FAIR. The goal is joint action by carpet dealers worldwide to give children from carpet weaver families in India and Pakistan the foundation for socially protected growing up. This improves the situation for the whole family in the long term. A child-friendly childhood for a life worth living - that is the mission.
