Description
The small town of Nain with about 70.000 inhabitants is about 140 kilometers east of Isfahan. Among the Nain carpets there are main quality levels, No 4La, 6La, 12La and Nain 9La. The number (before La) indicates the number of individual yarns that make up the warp. La means yarn layer.
The velvet material is also high quality pure Wool, which are borders with silk decorated. Nain patterns were found in the northeastern Persian city Kashmar in the region Khorasan woven. These have the lowest knot density among the Nain carpets with about 200000 knots per square meter.
Nain carpets are divided into many different classifications. This is based on the knot density per square meter. A 9Lateppich has a capacity of 400.000 to 550.000 nodes per square meter - a high value that few others can achieve Persian carpets to reach. Thanks to this strict classification, Nain carpets can be judged very well in terms of quality. It should be noted that all Nain rugs are of good quality. The design of these Persian carpets is very oriental.
A central medallion is surrounded and decorated with flowers and arabesques. Those looking for the East will find it in Nain's tapestry. Nain rugs have their own classification that divides them into classes. Depending on the node density, a distinction is made between 4La, 6La, 9La and 12La.
The following applies: the smaller the quantity, the higher the quality and the more complex the carpet. A 4La has a knot density of more than a million knots per square meter, is almost never made and can only be made by very experienced and skilled dwarven master weavers.
Therefore, such carpets are very interesting for collectors. Along with the Isfahan rug, this quality is one of the best Persian rugs. These masterpieces are made in a year by the most skilled weavers in the country.
The density of the relevant knots at the edges of the carpet can be controlled. If a pony consists of two strands, it is 4La. On the other hand, if it consists of three, you have a 6A in front of you.

How do you recognize a hand-knotted carpet?
A handmade (or hand-knotted) carpet is made on a specially designed loom and by hand tied. In contrast, a machine-woven carpet is made on a fully automatic weaving machine controlled by a computer. The carpet can therefore be produced much more quickly than a hand-knotted carpet, which can take up to a year to produce. Plastic materials are also used more frequently in machine-made carpets, while wool is predominantly used in handmade carpets.
Below are some basic tips on how to distinguish genuine handmade rugs from machine-made rugs.
Fringes – On a handmade and hand-knotted rug, the fringes are an extension of the rug (warp) and are not sewn in or added to the rug after the fact, as is common with machine-made rugs.
Selvage – This is the outer long side of the rug. This is created by twisting the weft threads on the edge, which are then incorporated and fixed. The origin of a carpet can often be identified by the appearance of the edge, as the edges are processed quite individually in the different weaving regions. A machine-made carpet usually has a very fine and precise edge. With a hand-knotted carpet, the edges are sewn by hand and therefore they are often a little uneven and not completely straight.
Pattern and Design – The pattern of a machine-made rug is usually very precise and the design is usually mirrored from one side to the other. There are hardly any inconsistencies in the design of a machine-made rug as opposed to that of a hand-made rug. Often the weaver doesn't have a design template at all, but rather improvises and weaves "off the top of his head" - the result is a charming asymmetry.
Backing – One of the telltale ways to tell the difference between a machine-made and hand-knotted rug is to look at the backing of the rug.

Question 1: How is the quality of a Persian carpet determined?
Answer 1: The quality of a Persian carpet is often determined by factors such as the density of knots per square meter, the type and fineness of the materials used (such as wool or silk), the complexity of the design and the craftsmanship. A higher knot density and the use of high quality materials contribute to a finer and more valuable carpet.
Question 2: What characteristics help distinguish a hand-knotted Persian carpet from a machine-made one?
Answer 2: Hand-knotted Persian rugs typically have fringes that are an extension of the rug itself, while machine-made rugs often have fringes sewn on afterwards. Additionally, inspection of the back of the carpet may reveal irregularities in knot size and spacing, where hand-knotted carpets have more variations. Hand-knotted carpets also often show asymmetry in design, as the weaver often improvises without a strict template.
Question 3: Why are Persian carpets considered valuable and culturally significant?
Answer 3: Persian carpets are valued for their rich history, intricate craftsmanship and unique designs. They often represent cultural and artistic traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation. The elaborate process of the hand-knotted carpet combined with the use of high-quality natural materials contributes to its longevity and aesthetic appeal. Many Persian carpets also tell stories through their designs and reflect the region's artistic heritage.
