This antique handmade Nahavand carpet, with an age of approximately 40 years, is an authentic example of Iran’s rural weavings, clearly demonstrating a well-balanced combination of pattern and color. Measuring 216 × 146 cm with a total area of 3.16 square meters, it falls into the category of well-proportioned three-meter carpets, while its rectangular format ensures high versatility in various interior spaces. The corner-and-medallion (Lachak–Toranj) structure with floral motifs is set on a navy-blue field, and the blue border with orderly decorations creates a balanced and readable visual frame. A knot density of 30 raj reflects suitable durability and controlled fineness. The wool pile combined with cotton warp and weft provides both longevity and softness, and the approximate weight of 13 kilograms—averaging 4 kilograms per square meter—indicates reliable construction quality. This carpet is a valuable choice for admirers of classic designs and authentic Nahavand character.
