About the Item
Antique Persian Tabriz Rug
Size: 6'2" x 18'0" (187 x 548 cm)
This captivating antique Persian Tabriz rug from the 1920s is a testament to the enduring legacy of one of Iran’s most esteemed weaving centers. Rich in character and artistry, the rug features an intricate all-over design laid upon a warm, dusty rose field. The composition is teeming with highly stylized palmettes, serrated leaves, cloud bands, and exotic floral forms, harmoniously arranged along a central vertical axis that enhances the visual rhythm of the piece.
The elegant motifs—executed in an expertly balanced palette of ivory, camel, ochre, navy, pale blue, and coral—reflect the Persian tradition of symbolic storytelling through ornament. This rug is particularly notable for its use of bold floral medallions framed by whimsical vine scrolls, lending it both structure and dynamism.
The multiple borders showcase layers of intricate design. The primary border—set against a midnight navy ground—displays a traditional meandering floral pattern with rosettes and curling tendrils. Guard borders in ivory and rust flank the central band, further elevating the piece's sense of craftsmanship and refinement.
Woven with high-quality wool, the rug offers a lustrous, soft texture and enduring durability. The subtle abrash (natural variation in dye) across the field enhances its authenticity and vintage charm. Light wear and patina, consistent with its age, contribute to the rug’s distinguished appeal.
A magnificent example of Tabriz weaving, this rug would serve as a remarkable foundation for traditional, transitional, or even modern interiors seeking historical depth and artistic sophistication.
A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition.Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
