About the Item
Exquisite 1880s Antique Persian Tabriz Rug
Size: 14'7" × 19'1" (444 × 581 cm)
This magnificent Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, dating back to the 1880s, is a superb example of the refined craftsmanship that flourished in the historic weaving center of Tabriz. Measuring an impressive 14'7" × 19'1", this oversized piece commands attention with its dignified elegance and delicate artistry.
Rendered in a graceful palette of soft taupe, muted coral, pale indigo, and subdued rose, the rug’s design centers around a subtle medallion floating in a nearly open field, framed by intricately adorned corner spandrels. The wide border is rhythmically punctuated by cartouche motifs, stylized floral rosettes, and meandering vine scrolls, all expressed with masterful restraint.
What distinguishes this Tabriz rug is its understated beauty and formal symmetry, hallmarks of elite 19th-century Persian weaving. Delicate detailing emerges from the field like a ghost of floral opulence, lending the rug a refined patina and ethereal softness that comes only with age. The intricate borders contrast gently with the sparsely ornamented field, producing an effect of balance and sophistication.
Hand-knotted in fine wool, the rug boasts a tight weave and low pile, signaling its origin in one of Persia’s most prestigious weaving centers. It was likely woven for a grand home or palace, exemplifying Tabriz’s reputation for rugs that merged artistic subtlety with regal grandeur.
This rug is not just a decorative piece—it is a collectible artifact of Persian artistry, ideal for interiors that value heritage, luxury, and understated elegance.
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.
