(Nein, Naimنين‎, Na'in)

Close to the western edge of the great desert Dasht-e-Kavir, 200 kilometres east of Isfahan is the picturesque city of Nain. Carpets from the city have an excellent reputation and are very popular. Patterns with a medallion in the middle together with arabesques and floral motifs are common as is the blue and cream colour combinations.
