{"product_id":"11110-8x13-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","title":"11110 - Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug 8' x 12'11\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eRows 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTabriz 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, and the discipline of the drawing shows it. Its borders turn cleanly at the corners, and its workshops worked in a wider palette than most, so ivory, stone and pale blue grounds turn up beside the reds. This rug shares that clean border, its rosette band turning each corner without a break, and its pale blue medallions sit beside the dusty rose ones on a beige ground. Its medallions repeat in steady columns down the field, and olive cartouches close the pattern at both ends.\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":68009144222009,"sku":"AL_11110_245x393","price":2575.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11110_1.jpg?v=1794096901","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11110-8x13-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
