ABOUT THIS PIECE

Finely handwoven in the world-famous rug-weaving city of Tabriz, this carpet is tightly woven from Fine local handspun wool on a durable cotton foundation. Woven over half a century ago, this carpet still maintains its natural lustre and shine due to high-quality materials.

Woven with remarkable precision, Tabriz rugs often carry intricate medallion patterns, delicate florals, or poetic scenes drawn from Persian literature. Their color palettes range from deep indigos and terracottas to soft ivories and pastels, brought to life with natural dyes. Some incorporate silk for added detail, giving the surface a subtle luminosity. These rugs not only reflect the technical mastery of their makers but also the layered cultural history of Tabriz itself, a city long at the crossroads of art, trade, and storytelling.
