About the Item

72868 Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, 09’00 x 12’03. This hand-knotted distressed antique Persian Tabriz rug from the Late 19th Century is a testament to cultivated refinement, where classical design is softened by time into something quietly magnificent. At its core rests a poised central medallion—formal, balanced, and dignified—anchoring the composition with an almost architectural authority. The medallion does not dominate; rather, it presides, allowing the surrounding ornamentation to unfold with grace and intention. Radiating outward, an all-over floral arrangement fills the field in a continuous, immersive rhythm. Each botanical element feels deliberately placed yet organically connected, forming a visual tableau that rewards prolonged study. The softly structured surface lends depth and character, subtly blurring strict symmetry and imparting the coveted patina collectors seek—evidence of age, authenticity, and lived elegance rather than perfection. Framing this intricate interior is a classic Tabriz border rich with dense floral detail. The border establishes order and refinement, while the inner and outer guard bands act as measured pauses, guiding the eye inward and outward in harmonious cadence. This layered framing reflects the intellectual rigor of Tabriz weaving traditions, prized for their precision, balance, and compositional sophistication. More than a decorative floor covering, this exquisite work of art embodies connoisseurship. It is an heirloom-level piece meant for interiors that value provenance, nuance, and understated prestige. Whether anchoring a formal salon or lending gravitas to a curated living space, this antique Tabriz masterpiece offers an experience of quiet luxury—timeless, confident, and unmistakably rare. Well-suited for a variety of interior styles including Romantic, Shabby Chic, Cottage, Romantic, Feminine Industrial, International Style, Traditional, Modern, Rustic, or Bungalow. Perfect for a bedroom, living room, front room, front room, great room, state room, studio, study, loft, lounge, office, library, parlor and casually elegant sitting room. Rendered in variegated shades of brick red, rustic wine, Marsala, gray, charcoal, dark gray, light gray, stone gray, slate, taupe, and dove gray. Distressed. Desirable Age Wear. Abrash.  Hand-knotted wool. Made in Iran (Persia). Measures: 09'00 x 12'03. Date: 1880's. Late 19th Century.
