Characteristics of the Origin (Nain)

Nain is a city located in central Iran, near Isfahan. Nain rugs are very popular and resemble Isfahan designs. Cotton is used for the foundation, and wool or silk is often used for the pile. The designs frequently feature medallions with Shah Abbasi floral patterns. Ivory and beige are commonly used for the field color, with accents of red, green, blue, and pink often added. The Habibian workshop is particularly famous, known for its high-quality rugs.

What is a Persian Rug?

A Persian rug is a rug woven in Iran. It has a long history and is famous for its beauty and durability, lasting for generations. It is one of the most outstanding artistic handicrafts representing Iranian culture and art. Due to differences in rug design and materials used by region, Iran boasts a wide variety of rugs. These range from delicate and intricate designs woven in workshops to simple, geometric tribal rugs woven by Iranian ethnic groups. The main materials used are wool and silk. The beautiful designs and delicate color schemes of Persian rugs possess a unique charm. By incorporating a one-of-a-kind Persian rug with its own distinct charm into your room, you can further enhance its atmosphere.

Daily Care (Wool)

Remove dirt and dust by vacuuming or sweeping along the pile.
If you spill drinks, immediately absorb the liquid with an absorbent material (such as kitchen paper or tissue), then wipe with a damp cloth.
For stubborn stains: Dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, carefully wipe with water to remove the detergent, and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.
