{"product_id":"11125-7x9-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","title":"11125 - Persian Tabriz Area Rug 6'11\" x 9'2\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eA dark blue ring at the heart of this remarkable rug catches the eye first. The beige field is filled with scrolling vines, palmettes and small blossoms in terracotta, olive and pale blue. At the center sits a lobed terracotta medallion with a notched outline. Inside it, a dark blue ring of curled leaves circles an olive core and a rosette, a flower seen from above. Cross-shaped terracotta pendants sit above and below it. Handsome olive spandrels fill the four corners, set with pale blue palmettes and small flower heads. The terracotta main border carries a graceful scroll of palmettes and vines with dark blue accents. Narrow pale blue guard stripes run on either side of it. The pile is short and full, with a few pale specks in the upper olive corner. It holds a room in warm terracotta and olive, and the beige field keeps the center light. At 6'11\" by 9'2\", it fits a living room with the front legs of the sofa and chairs on the rug, or beside a queen bed.\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. Medallions sit properly centered, borders turn cleanly at the corners, and the vine scrolls follow a plan laid out in full before weaving began. This rug shares that discipline: its medallion sits squarely at the center, with matching pendants above and below, and the terracotta border turns cleanly at each corner. Its beige field is crowded with vines and blossoms, and the pale blue palmettes in the olive corners pick up the pale blue of the guard stripes.\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":68014415053113,"sku":"AL_11125_210x280","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11125_1.jpg?v=1794112245","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11125-7x9-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
