{"product_id":"11094-8x9-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","title":"11094 - Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug 8'2\" x 9'3\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eRows of slender trees stand on this delightful rug, set between panels of pale blue. Worked on a camel field, the design is laid out as a grid, three panels across and three down. Tree panels alternate with pale blue blocks, so there is no medallion, only the repeat. Each tree rises on a slate blue trunk, with branches of dotted lines, tiny coral dots and small brown leaves. The pale blue blocks carry a herringbone of brown lines and dark dots around a striped center. Between the panels run rows of coral rosettes with pale blue centers, slate blue flower heads and pale blue rings. A handsome camel border frames the field, lined with narrow brown stripes that widen into bands at the two ends. The pile is low across the whole rug. It reads as light and sunny, with the pale blue and coral bright against the warm camel ground. At 8'2\" by 9'3\", it fits a dining table for four with the chairs pulled out, or a living room with the sofa and chairs fully on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTabriz stood for a long period on the great caravan routes to Trebizond and Tiflis, and became the principal market of Persia for the export of rugs. Tabriz in northwestern Persia is a city workshop tradition, and it shows in the discipline of the drawing. Tabriz workshops also worked in a wider palette than most, so pale blue grounds turn up alongside the reds. This rug shares that discipline, with its panels set in a strict grid and each tree worked to the same plan. It also carries pale blue as a ground of its own in the herringbone blocks. The coral rosettes sit on camel between the panels, and the brown stripes of the border pick up the brown lines inside the pale blue blocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery 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 \u0026amp; cleaned. It ships folded and fully insured.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Storied Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68010197352761,"sku":"AL_11094_250x283","price":3050.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11094_1.jpg?v=1794100497","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11094-8x9-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
