Tabriz 1544

An early 20th century Persian Tabriz room size rug in a Herati geometric pattern. Meticulously hand-knotted, this piece showcases a medallion Herati geometric pattern in a captivating "Shabby Chic Distressed" style, a testament to its age and history. This rug, far from being simply worn, embodies a desirable patina that speaks of enduring design and a life well-lived.

The all-over Herati pattern is set against a magnificent abrash navy blue background. The term "abrash" refers to the subtle and charming color variations that occur from natural vegetable dyes, adding depth and a sense of "living color" to the field. The central medallion, a focal point of the design, is rendered in a harmonious combination of antique camel and French blue, creating a sophisticated and elegant contrast.

The corners of the field feature complementary spandrels in a blend of antique camel and French blue, seamlessly tying the composition together. The border is a classic Tabriz design, with a traditional ram horn and medallion motif also set in a deep navy blue, beautifully framing the central field.
