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.
