11110 · 8' x 12'11" Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug

Rows of dusty rose and pale blue medallions give this lovely rug its gentle rhythm. From across a room the field reads beige, a light ground scattered with small stars, diamonds and hooked crosses. There is no central medallion: the plan is an all-over repeat of large hooked medallions in three columns, dusty rose alternating with pale blue. Olive centers with a navy core sit inside the dusty rose ones, and smaller cross-shaped medallions with hooked arms fill the spaces between. At each end, three handsome olive cartouches close the field, with small dusty rose octagons set just inside them. A beautiful dusty rose border carries navy rosettes, alternating with paler ones and linked by short bar motifs. Guard stripes of slanting olive and pale blue bars and a row of tiny flowers frame it on the inside, with a speckled band outside. The pile is low across the rug. It settles into a dining room or a sitting area, where the dusty rose and pale blue stay calm against the beige. At 8' by 12'11", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.
