Tabriz / 10790

An elegant Tabriz in wool, this antique rug measures 11' 0" x 14' 6" and presents a densely worked scalloped medallion enlivened by a profusion of rosettes and floral sprays. The deep red field has softened to a warm patina against cream, gold and sage accents, while a navy floral border frames the composition with refined contrast. The surface shows low, even wear and a tactile, handworn sheen that emphasizes the pile’s soft abrash and colour depth. Circa 1900 - 1915, the piece reads as a considered example of classical Tabriz vocabulary and enduring material presence.
