Description
7’ 2” x 10’ 10” Vintage room size Persian Tabriz rug in an allover "Gol Farang (Foreign Flower)” pattern circa the mid 1900s. Although the Gol Farang pattern is usually associated with the rugs from Bidjar, other rug weaving centers might use it when the rug is custom ordered by a client requesting the pattern. It is also thought that the design might also be a variation on the French Aubusson design carpet the Shah of Persia had seen and liked very much while visiting one of the palaces in Europe. The design is set in an “abrash (variation in colors caused by the use of organic dyes)" navy blue & French blue colors in the field with a brick red color border with a ram's horn design. The carpet design is very beautiful and each flower comes in various shades of cream, blue, and red colors.
