Description

This elegant vintage Persian Tabriz runner features a refined floral design hand-knotted with a wool pile on a cotton foundation and delicately accented with silk highlights that bring a subtle, shimmering quality to the surface. The cream-colored field is gracefully framed by a rich red border, while the use of silk threads throughout the floral motifs creates a luminous effect that shifts and glows beautifully under changing light.

The Tabriz runner format — long, narrow, and refined — has been a hallmark of Northwest Persian weaving for generations, designed to grace the long corridors and formal entryways of grand homes and palaces. This piece offers the classical elegance of the great Tabriz weaving tradition in a practical format perfectly suited to hallways, entryways, and gallery-style transitional spaces. Tabriz, the ancient capital of Persian Azerbaijan and one of the great trading cities of the Silk Road, has been a center of carpet weaving for centuries. The city's workshops produce rugs of extraordinary technical precision and design sophistication — ranging from the classical floral medallion compositions of the great 19th century masters to the bold geometric and Mahi patterns for which Tabriz is equally celebrated. Tabriz rugs are among the most recognized and sought-after Persian carpets in the world.
