Nain
rug is one of the most famous Iranian rugs, which has a
high quality. Like other productive activities, quality of
Nain rugs is not the same in different weaving centers.
Rugs, with the highest quality, belong to regions like
Baferon, Jeshogan, Toudoshak and Jandaq and rugs woven in
Khor, Odib and Garmeh have lower quality.
This
change of quality has different reasons, such as the
nature of region (regarding the poorness and richness),
Wool quality and weaving style.
Other
weaving centers of Nain rug are Natanz, Joshaghan Poud,
Rahimabad, Varzaneh, Hoznabad, Oshan, Badafshan,
Khoshkouyeh, Sagzi and Mazraehshour.
One
of the most important reasons of Nain rug's high quality
is its pile dyeing. " Seyed Hadi Banitaba " is
one of the most famous dyers of this region, with 30 years
precedence in this job. Low variety of colors has resulted
chemical dyes; to be used less in Nain rug’s comparing
the other types, which makes those more valuable.
One
of the factors, resulting the decline in Nain rug value,
is production of other rugs in other regions, that are
imitations of Nain rug's colors and images, but with a
very low quality, regarding dye type, color or weaving.
Some
of the reasons resulting high quality and more value in
Nain rugs are:
1-
Nain rug weavers’ knowledge and sufficient information
about quantitative and qualitative values of this rug.
2- Relatively, high level of literacy and information of
people involving this occupation.
3- Using good and high quality raw materials.
4- Artistic use of designs and images inspired by Iranian
elements.
5- Particular use of dye, especially traditional dyes.
6- Proper use of tools and relatively bright workshops.
7- Accuracy and correctness of weaving and considering
technical specialties.
