A dark teal frame with scalloped edges surrounds a dusty rose field in this lovely rug. A small lobed medallion in gray and blue sits at the center of the field. Outside the frame, a wide smoke gray ground carries faint flowers and vines, out to a border of curved scrolls. Pile runs low, and every color is muted, with a soft worn surface. It settles well in a room with gray walls, dark wood or black metal. At 9'9" by 12'9", 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.
About Tabriz rugs
From the middle of the 1800s commercial carpet weaving revived in Persia, and Tabriz was one of its most important centers, weaving largely for Europe. The Swiss firm Ziegler, in time the biggest exporter of carpets from Persia, had its first lucky break in Tabriz in 1876. Tabriz in northwestern Persia has a city workshop tradition, and the discipline of the drawing shows it. Medallions sit properly centered, and Tabriz workshops also worked in a wider palette than most, so ivory, stone and pale blue grounds turn up beside the reds. This rug keeps its small lobed medallion squarely at the center of a dusty rose field, inside a dark teal frame with scalloped edges. Outside the frame a wide smoke gray ground carries faint flowers and vines, one of those quieter grounds. Dusty rose, dark teal and gray carry the whole design.

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.
