About the Item

Made with hand-knotted wool circa 1920-1930 from India, this 15x28 antique rug is an interesting Indian interpretation of Persian Tabriz rugs, and a rare oversized rug among the most exciting new curations from Rug & Kilim. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will appreciate this palace rug’s inspiration from some of the most sought-after antique Tabriz rugs, often called “hunting rugs” for their depictions of elaborate all over patterns with an abundance of animal illustrations. In the impressive variety of colors at play, key notes of gold, navy blue, and pink underscore the many intricate borders and field alike—both of which host a vast array of both finely detailed floral patterns and near countless species of creatures. Keen eyes may admire the field’s presentation of an intricate paradise garden schema, where paired peacocks—rendered in cobalt blue and sage green—stand as guardians of a flowering paradise (sometimes believed in certain academic circles to be a representation of Eden and similar theological/mythological realms). These avian pictorials depicted with detailed plumage and proud bearing emerge from a ground alive with delicate botanical specimens and meandering vines, and are but are few of the birds, predators, and even serpents one finds upon a closer look at the design—-a classic Indian Mughal design of the highest caliber. The border deserves a special note—its midnight blue cartouches, reminiscent of architectural niches, create a processional framework that both contains and elevates the central narrative. Admirers of the craft will appreciate this as an extremely collectible piece of its period, like few special pieces with such a personal, intentional look and finesse of any antique, let alone an oversized rug—likely a custom aristocratic commission of its time befitting its regal nature. Overall the attention to detail in scale, texture and movement of color is matched only by its equally rare condition. Condition: This antique Indian Tabriz rug further enjoys an overall good condition for its age and origin—an impressive find among Oriental rugs of a celebrated weaving tradition.
