About the Item

77360 Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, 11'11 x 17'08. Steeped in the opulence of Persian court traditions and the gilded romance of 18th-century Europe, this one-of-a-kind, hand-knotted wool antique Persian Tabriz rug is a breathtaking convergence of Bridgerton-era elegance, Rococo artistry, and French Romanticism. Its precious composition evokes the ambiance of an aristocratic salon—where mirrored chandeliers sparkled, porcelain vases brimmed with lilies, and soft sonatas drifted through rooms draped in silk. At the heart of this majestic masterpiece, a triple-lobed medallion blooms, exquisitely adorned with stylized florals nestled in an overflowing vase. Scalloped cartouches in faded mauve surround the medallion like delicate cameos, while opulent frondescence radiates outward in star-flowered symmetry, transforming the central field into a tableau of timeless enchantment. The cream-toned field unfurls like a sunlit garden painted in wool—a dreamlike Eden populated with parrots, birds of paradise, and Tree of Life motifs that conjure both paradise and poetry. A lush profusion of curled sickle leaves, leafy tendrils, lotus blossoms, and arabesque vines creates a garden of movement and mystery. Feathery botehs, symbolic of fertility and divine flame, dance in gentle rhythm alongside slayed palmettes and acanthus scrolls that pay homage to European decorative arts. Each motif is a deliberate gesture, an emblem of beauty and botanical symbolism, creating a layered narrative where Persian tradition flirts with the refined decadence of Versailles. The rug is not simply decorative—it is an immersive experience, a canvas of storytelling woven for the most discerning collectors of culture and form. A second framing element emerges within the composition—sickle leaves and acanthus scrolls forming a soft architectural framework, guiding the eye to the corner spandrels. These spandrels are adorned with a millefleur cascade of floral cartouche vases, bowls, and perched birds, each rendered with impeccable precision. The details are ornamentally layered, offering the rare ability to dazzle upon first glance and then reveal more upon intimate study. The exclusive rug becomes a curated symphony of structure and softness, of precision and poetry—an artisan’s love letter to a golden age of woven beauty. The combination of French garden finesse and Persian cosmological complexity creates a visual rhythm that is at once elevated and intimate, tailored for palatial interiors or couture-styled settings. Encasing this magnificent composition is a floral cartouche border—gracefully tailored, flanked with inner and outer acanthus scroll guard bands, echoing the floral melodies of the interior field. The border serves not only as ornamentation but as a ceremonial frame—a halo of heritage that heightens the grandeur of what lies within. With its stylish complexity and grandeur in scale, this mesmerizing Tabriz rug transcends mere textile to become a statement of cultivated taste. It speaks to the collector who treasures rare provenance, to the aesthete who curates their space with pieces that hold both historical resonance and timeless elegance. In settings of paneled libraries, grand staircases, or salons with marble hearths, it radiates with stately poise and emotional refinement. To possess this antique Persian Tabriz rug is to step into a world where luxury is whispered, not declared—a world of perfumed walled gardens, inked love letters, and embroidered ballgowns. It is precious not just in material but in meaning, a masterpiece woven with the intimacy of a painter’s hand and the vision of a courtly architect. This sumptuous rug is not an object; it is an heirloom, a living work of art, a testament to craftsmanship and culture at its most refined. For those who seek to live among treasures that carry both story and soul, this Tabriz is the ultimate expression of timeless, enchanting grandeur. Rendered in pastel hues and variegated shades of cream, burgundy, mauve, rose, lavender, gray, baby blue, celadon, ink blue, sage, avocado, raspberry pink, glaucous, champagne, apricot, peach, maroon, and sky blue with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 11'11 x 17'08. Date: 1920's. Early 20th Century.
