A large red star medallion catches the eye first on this lovely rug. Across a cream field, graceful scrolling vines carry palmettes, curling leaves and small animals, deer and hares among them. The medallion is a lobed star with a sky blue edge, and navy palmettes fill its red lobes. Its cream core holds a small rosette in navy and red. A large palmette edged in red and rust hangs above and below it as a pendant. The handsome sky blue border carries a row of palmettes and rosettes in red and cream. Rust guard stripes, set with small flowers, run on either side of it. The pile is low in places, and the center of the medallion has thinned in a few small patches. It settles a large dining room, the sky blue border cooling the red at its heart. At 10' by 12'6", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.
Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. Hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, vintage, approx. 50 years (1970s). Condition: professionally washed & cleaned. It ships folded and fully insured.
About Tabriz rugs
Tabriz weavers tie their knots with a small hooked knife instead of their fingers, and have been timed at faster than one knot a second. Tabriz in northwestern Persia has a city workshop tradition: medallions sit properly centered, borders turn cleanly at the corners, and the vine scrolls follow a plan laid out in full. Its workshops also worked in a wider palette than most, so pale blue grounds turn up beside the reds. This rug keeps that order, its red medallion set at the center and its border turning cleanly at each corner. Large gold leaves sweep in toward the four corners of the cream field, with leaping deer and a small bird among the vines.

Returns & exchangesMade entirely by hand.
Every knot in this rug was tied by hand, one at a time, on an upright loom. A piece like this is the work of two or three weavers sitting side by side for months, wool worked row by row into a pattern carried from memory, its colors softened by decades of light and use. Nothing about it was quick, and no two are ever the same.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
