This antique Keshan rug is a beautiful unique piece. It was hand-knotted decades ago in the city of Kashan in Iran. Its ornaments have been woven in durable and strong colours with a lot of experience. Thanks to the high knot density, the patterns appear fine and lively. The rug has been fully checked, cleaned and cared for by our experts. This antique Persian rug from one of the most popular provenances is an extremely valuable piece of traditional craftsmanship from the history of Persia.


Persian Rug

This carpet comes from Iran (formerly Persia) and as a Persian rug enjoys probably the highest reputation among all hand-knotted rug types. No other region looks back on such a long tradition in rug making as Iran. Thus, the probably finest and most elaborate rugs originate here. The robustness, durability and quality of the Persian knot are still unsurpassed today. Persian rugs are usually named after their region of origin. For instance, a Nain, a Ghom as well as an Isfahan carpet comes from the city of the same name in Iran.

Highest-grade Wool

Cork wool is sheep's wool from the neck area of the sheep. Wool is a natural material that brings important positive properties to everyday life. It is extremely hard-wearing and easily withstands daily stress. With proper care, it can also last for many decades without showing signs of aging. Cork wool is particularly soft and shiny because it has a higher natural fat content. Therefore, it is usually only used in high-quality rugs.

Knotted by hand

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still form the highest quality standard among all types of rugs. Depending on the type of knot, the rugs are extremely robust and can last for generations. The finer and tighter a rug is knotted, the more detailed ornaments and patterns can be depicted on the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires a much higher manual effort as well as a higher level of experience and skill of the knotter. Thus the knot density also serves as a decisive value factor of hand-knotted rugs. The quality is not directly related to the knot density. A rather coarse rug may well have been made in excellent quality.

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.
