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 exceptional Persian Tabriz rug (SKU: 1207) is a rare masterpiece in the revered Shah Abbas design, originally created for the Persian Royal Court during the Safavid Dynasty of the 16th century. The rug features a luminous pomegranate-red field elegantly framed by a deep navy blue border. Subtle accents of turquoise, pink, green, brown, and red enliven the composition, while pure silk highlights emphasize the intricate floral and arabesque motifs with shimmering depth. White corner spandrels add balance and refinement to the design.
Finely woven with a remarkably high knot density, this rug exemplifies the artistry and precision of master Tabriz weavers. It forms part of a very rare identical pair (SKU: 1207 & 1208), making it a collector’s treasure and a striking choice for sophisticated interiors.
