{"product_id":"11128-7x9-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","title":"11128 - Persian Tabriz Area Rug 6'7\" x 9'5\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eRows of rose and dark blue octagons give this lovely rug its quiet, steady rhythm. Gray brown carries the whole field from across a room, a close lattice of brown stepped crosses on a sand ground. Each opening holds an octagonal gul with a rose core, and toward one end the guls take dark blue outlines and sage centers. The field is an all-over repeat with no medallion, and a single row of rose crosses runs across it below the middle. The handsome main border sets rose and dark blue hooked diamonds on a sand ground. A rose guard stripe of small stepped motifs lines its inside, and narrow olive and brown stripes run around the outside. The pile is low, and a few pale patches show in the field and along one side. It slips into a calm room, its rose and dark blue notes lifting all that sand and brown. At 6'7\" by 9'5\", 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. Its workshops also worked in a wider palette than most, so ivory, stone and pale blue grounds turn up beside the reds. This rug keeps that discipline, with its guls set in straight rows and its border turning cleanly at every corner. The ground of the field is a pale sand, and rose and dark blue appear across it in small, closely worked accents. Bands of olive and brown close the outer edge.\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":68011535106361,"sku":"AL_11128_200x286","price":1000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11128_1.jpg?v=1794102305","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11128-7x9-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
