{"product_id":"11226-9x13-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","title":"11226 - Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug 9'2\" x 12'8\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eDense brown vines cover nearly every part of this lovely rug. From across a room the field reads gray brown, though the ground under the vines is a pale rose tan. At the center, a small pale blue diamond sits inside a brown lobed medallion, with pendants above and below. Slate blue corner pieces close the four corners. The main border is brown with flower heads and leaves, between pale blue and cream guard stripes. The pile is low throughout, and the colors are muted. It reads as warm and quiet, with the blue corners adding a cool note. At 9'2\" by 12'8\", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the middle of the 1800s commercial carpet weaving revived in Persia, and Tabriz was one of its most important centers, weaving largely for Europe. Its 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 is a city workshop tradition, and it shows in the discipline of the drawing. Medallions are properly centered, borders turn cleanly at the corners, and the vine scrolls follow a plan worked out in full before weaving began. The vine scrolls of this rug run over the whole field and meet the medallion cleanly. Brown, rose tan and slate blue keep the palette warm with one cool accent.\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":68031670845753,"sku":"AL_11226_280x385","price":2600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11226_1.jpg?v=1794215081","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11226-9x13-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
