Doris Leslie Blau Antique Persian Tabriz Animal Design Carpet

About the Item

Antique Persian Tabriz animal design carpet Size: 11'3" × 15'2" (342 × 462 cm) An early 20th century antique Persian Tabriz carpet, the caramel field with a lush all-over design of naturalistic animals and trees with a unusual hill-shaped cartouches at the lower end within a celadon tree and animal border. Persian rugs have a long history, going back to the Golden Age of Persian carpet weaving. The concept of carpet production came about during the Safavid dynasty. Court-established factories, provisioned by Shah Tahmasp (1524-1587), were devoted to producing intricate carpets and rugs. Factory production replaced the village craft of rug-making that had been prevalent up until that time. These antique Persian rugs featured simple rectilinear patterns. After 1722, Persian antique carpet production declined significantly. The Afghan invasion took a toll on the region, but - fueled by European demand - production picked up again in the late 19th century. This art form was thus revived. This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. 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.
