Malayer is a city in Iran, located within the province of Hamadan. Local weavers traditionally produced a wide range of traditional patterns from all-over motifs to lozenge-shaped medallions. They also focus on beautiful detailed borders. 

Antique rugs from the Malayer region constitute an important and distinctive group of Persian weavings. They are known for the quality of the weave, design and wool, and are some of the most artistic and beautiful antique Persian rugs to come out of Iran. If you love the art of tribal weaving but are drawn to finer more refined artistic patterns, then you're onto a winner here. 

As antique rugs, you can see the age of the rug. Though they are in great condition. A timeless piece!

This is a Persian Nain rug. Nain is a town 150km to the east of Isfahan in central Iran. Very fine and precise designs were created due to the high quality of the workshops in the area. Nain rugs have a cotton foundation with a very soft wool or wool & silk pule. The workmanship is of the highest class and the knot density is also high (often more than one million knots per square meter). 

Patterns with a medallion in the middle together with arabesques and floral motifs are common.   

Nain rugs have three knot types: 4La, 6La and 9La. In Farsi, the "La" translates to "Layer". This numbering helps decide the quality of a Nain rug - referring to the number of layers of threads that have been used in every warp-thread when weaving the rug. The lower the number the finer and higher density the knots the carpet has.
