This antique Tabriz rug, circa 1930, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind Persian carpet with an elegant all-over floral design rendered in softly faded tones. Its finely drawn pattern, pale blue field, and refined border create a luminous, airy presence that showcases the sophisticated craftsmanship collectors prize in antique Tabriz weaving. An ideal centerpiece for a living room, bedroom, or dining area.
Faded cool tones of ivory, pale blue, taupe, slate, brown, and soft coral, with a ivory field.
Tabriz is the capital of the Turkish speaking Persian Azerbaijan, situated in North Western Iran. Under control of the Suljuk’s in the thirteenth century, it was not until the fifteenth century that Tabriz had a real weaving tradition. By the sixteenth century Tabriz was a major weaving area. It was at this time Tabriz weavers introduced curvilinear designs to the courts in Istanbul. As in many major rug weaving centers production declined for a few hundred years until the mid nineteenth century when Tabriz began re-establishing itself as a major center for the export of Persian rugs. Tabriz weavers are excellent craftsmen and have a reputation for producing exceptional rugs whether they be silk or wool.
