11253 · 9'1" x 12'2" Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug

The teal medallion and stepped teal corners catch the eye first on this lovely rug. Small flower heads and fine vine scrolls cover the smoke gray field, which turns gray brown in places. At the center sits a beautiful lobed medallion on a teal ground, with a gray beige core and pendants above and below. Large stepped spandrels fill the four corners, their teal grounds carrying scrolling arabesques and curled leaves. The main border runs a graceful leafy vine on smoke gray, with walnut flower heads and lobed palmettes between its turns. Narrow gray brown guard stripes frame it on both sides. The pile is low across the whole rug, and the foundation shows in pale flecks throughout. It brings a calm smoke gray into a room, and the teal medallion keeps the eye at its center. At 9'1" by 12'2", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.

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.
