Antique Persian Tabriz Handmade Wool Rug BB5472 9'3" × 11'4" $18,000

Antique Tabriz rugs are widely known for their diversity. They can range from flat to pile weaves. Patterns of Tabriz rugs can feature not only traditional Persian motifs, but sometimes also fully-fledged reproductions of famous works of art. Craftsmen from the city of Tabriz are famed for their great talent – after all, Persian rugs they create are worthy of kings and some of them did found their way to various courts and palaces.

This stunning antique Tabriz rug was hand woven in the late 19th century, circa 1880. No wonder that so many art collectors are interested in owning one – each antique Tabriz rug has its own story to tell and the story told by this Persian rug is a fascinating one. What immediately draws attention in its design is certainly a highly decorative central medallion. Made of curling vines and delicate leaves, it is framed by a border featuring a floral motif of extraordinary beauty. Such level of detail could only be achieved by a true master of weaving art. The color palette accompanying the pattern features vivacious shade of terracotta red contrasted with much calmer blue, beige and dove gray.

The size of this Tabriz rug, 9’3″ × 11’4″ (282 × 345 cm), makes it a great choice for those who want to decorate their living rooms or reading rooms with a rug that is both extraordinary and traditionally elegant.
