Curling blue leaves and pale rosettes spread over this lovely rug from end to end. Over a beige field, rosettes and palmettes in rust, brown and pale blue sit in rows, tied by fine brown vine tendrils. The design is an all-over repeat with no medallion, and graceful serrated leaves in blue curl between the flowers. The handsome main border has a beige ground that carries scrolling brown and rust vines, with small rose and blue blossoms. Narrow guard stripes in rust and brown, picked out with tiny repeating marks, frame it on both sides. The pile is low across the rug. It brings warm beige and brown into a room, and the blue leaves add a cool, quiet note. At 6'3" 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.
Every 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 & cleaned. It ships folded and fully insured.
About Tabriz rugs
A special court workshop, possibly at Tabriz, is credited with translating the most splendid book illuminations into carpets. Since the late 19th century a complex design has usually reached the weavers as a cartoon, laid out on squared paper with one square for each knot. Tabriz in northwestern Persia has a city workshop tradition, and the discipline of the drawing shows it. Borders turn cleanly at the corners, and the vine scrolls follow a plan. Tabriz workshops also worked in a wider palette than most, so ivory, stone and pale blue grounds turn up beside the reds. This rug shows that discipline, with a border that turns cleanly at each corner and flowers set in steady rows. Its beige ground carries brown vines, blue leaves and small rust blossoms across the whole field.

Returns & exchangesMade entirely by hand.
Every knot in this rug was tied by hand, one at a time, on an upright loom. A piece like this is the work of two or three weavers sitting side by side for months, wool worked row by row into a pattern carried from memory, its colors softened by decades of light and use. Nothing about it was quick, and no two are ever the same.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
