I personally have not come across Akhavan Nain. However, this piece does not seem to be that old and there have been a few new weavers in Nain in the past 20 years. It looks pretty but I would do a burn test to see if the silk is real. The problem is most dealers, in terms of value, do not differentiate between a 9la and Tabas or copies.

It seems to me that it is artificial silk
