Antique 1870s Persian Tabriz Rug Woven by Order of Prince Shahrukh Mirza, 13x21

About the Item

This Persian Tabriz carpet was woven by the order of Prince Shahrukh Mirza circa 1870, as stated by the signature in the carpet's border. It consists of a cotton warp and thread, hand-knotted pure wool pile and natural vegetable dyes. The level of detail is extraordinary, highlighted further by the carpet's rich gold, navy and red tones, and balanced by its soft pinks, greens and light blues. It features a Garden of Eden design with many symbolic motifs including doves, peacocks, leopards, foxes, horses, flowers and cypress trees. Interestingly, the sister of this carpet was illustrated in the book "Pearl of Persia," by Wilfrid Jasper Walter Blunt. The size is 13'2" x 20'8", and it is in great antique condition. Orley Shabahang takes pride in selecting and curating the finest vintage and antique carpets, ensuring that the preservation of this ancient art form will endure for generations to come.
