Large 19th Century Tabriz Carpet

SKU
RT4933441

The city of Tabriz in Northwest Persia has long been known as a centre for Persian arts, culture, and literature, but especially for the quality of its carpets, with a tradition dating back as early as the 14th Century. 


Thanks to its location, incorporating influences from nearby Azerbaijan and Turkey, its weavings are among the most diverse of any city in Iran, and antique Tabriz carpets are especially distinguished by their tight weaves and close adherence to the traditions of Classical Persian rug weaving design. This early Tabriz carpet boasts an elegant and balanced overall drawing of great proportion. 


The monochrome palette of its central field lends the rug a subtle, restrained feel. A rare feature of this handsome carpet is the uniformity of the colour across the central field and the main border, rather than the stark contrast between the two which is usually found in this type of weaving, making the piece more versatile to blend in both drawing and dining rooms. 


This 19th century Tabriz carpet is in very good practical condition for everyday use, still retaining its outer borders and fringes on all four sides. 


A highly decorative carpet to blend in a classic or contemporary setting.
