This 6'6 x 6'8 square Persian Nain rug is a refined example of classical Iranian weaving, known for its precision, serenity, and architectural balance. Its rare square format gives it a distinct presence, ideal for creating a centered design moment in a room rather than a directional layout. Every detail reflects the disciplined artistry that defines true Nain production.

Design & Layout

The composition centers around a beautifully proportioned floral medallion, framed by perfectly mirrored vine scrolls that radiate outward in full symmetry. The layout follows a classical garden structure, where each quadrant mirrors the next with mathematical harmony. The medallion remains subtle and integrated rather than dominant, allowing the surrounding floral field to breathe naturally across the surface.

Motifs & Pattern Work

The field is filled with delicate palmettes, layered rosettes, curling lotus blossoms, and flowing arabesques, all interlinked through elegant vine work. Each motif is sharp, clean, and finely articulated, giving the rug its refined clarity. The borders consist of multiple framing bands, with the main border displaying repeating floral cartouches that echo the interior patterning. Every element feels intentional and perfectly balanced.

Colors

The deep navy blue field establishes a strong visual foundation and gives the rug its dramatic depth. Surrounding the field, warm ivory tones dominate the borders and outer framing, providing contrast and brightness.
Soft light blue accents appear across floral highlights and vine tracery, giving movement and softness to the composition.
Beige and taupe shades provide subtle transitions between dark and light zones, while chocolate brown outlinessharpen the definition of each motif.
Small touches of muted burgundy appear in select floral centers, adding warmth and dimension without overpowering the palette.
Hints of soft olive green appear within leaf forms, introducing a natural grounding element.

The full color structure creates visual richness without excess, maintaining the composed elegance Nain rugs are admired for.
