About the Item

Oversized Antique Persian Tabriz Rug Size: 14'2" × 28'0" (431 × 853 cm) A masterful expression of Persian artistry, this oversized antique Tabriz rug from the early 20th century is a breathtaking example of the fine weaving tradition of Tabriz—a city known as one of Iran’s most distinguished carpet production centers. The rug boasts a lush, intricate allover botanical design set against a rich, midnight-navy field. Scrolling vines burst with stylized palmettes, rosettes, lotus blossoms, and arabesques, all delicately drawn in harmonious tones of soft camel, ochre, ivory, and celadon green. This palette lends the rug both gravitas and elegance while allowing the refined floral motifs to stand out in vivid clarity. A series of elegantly layered borders encloses the field, with the primary border rendered in a terracotta ground featuring grand palmettes and serrated leaves in blue and ivory. Multiple minor borders of floral meanders and rosettes frame the composition with rhythmic precision and symmetry, reflecting the rug's high level of craftsmanship. What sets this Tabriz apart is not only its monumental size and condition but the dynamism and balance in the design. The pattern is neither overly rigid nor too free-flowing; instead, it maintains a graceful equilibrium characteristic of the finest Persian court carpets. The pile is knotted using high-quality wool, tightly woven with a finesse that captures the crisp details of the curvilinear floral motifs. This antique Tabriz carpet is not merely a floor covering—it is a sophisticated work of textile art with enduring beauty and historical importance. Ideal for grand spaces such as ballrooms, great rooms, or galleries, this piece offers a distinguished touch of Persian luxury that speaks to the connoisseur's eye. Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
