Curated Collection of Authentic 19th and the Early 20th Century Rugs, Tapestries and Textiles Artistically Handwoven in Persia, the Caucasus, Anatolia, and Around the World
This fine Persian Tabriz rug is a rare masterpiece that beautifully captures the spirit of classic Heriz village rugs through the precision and artistry of a Tabriz workshop. Hand-knotted with a wool pile on a cotton foundation and enhanced with shimmering silk highlights, this exceptional piece reinterprets a traditional geometric design with fresh vibrancy and sophistication.
Set against a striking black background, the rug features a bold central medallion woven in shades of cream, peach, red, blue, and yellow. The pale pink border offers a delicate and elegant contrast, while the corner spandrels in pale yellow add warmth and balance to the overall composition.
A vibrant and harmonious color palette—including pink, green, baby blue, red, and ivory—is brought to life by the subtle sheen of silk threads, creating a dynamic interplay of texture and light. This rug marries the robust geometry of antique Heriz designs with the refined execution typical of the finest Tabriz craftsmanship.
