This antique Persian Tabriz runner, circa 1940, is a hand-knotted, one-of-a-kind weaving with an elegant ivory field and finely drawn repeating medallion and floral vinery. Soft sky blue, camel, and charcoal accents animate the elongated composition, while the detailed border and balanced symmetry showcase the refined craftsmanship associated with Tabriz workshop rugs. Its narrow runner format makes it especially well-suited for a hallway, entryway, or kitchen.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, sky blue, camel, charcoal, taupe, slate, and cream, 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.
