{"product_id":"11258-9x12-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","title":"11258 - Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug 9'4\" x 12'6\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eA gray brown medallion with a cream heart stands at the center of this lovely rug. Within a dusty rose field, small flowers and curling vines in gray brown and sage spread out on all sides. The medallion is a lobed diamond, with a small pendant above and below. Cream corner pieces, worked with sage vines and gray brown palmettes, frame the field. The main border is dusty rose with small flowers, set between cream guard stripes. Pile runs low across the rug, and every color is muted. The dense drawing stays quiet in these muted colors, easy in a room with cream walls or pale wood. At 9'4\" by 12'6\", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 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. The city workshop tradition of Tabriz, in northwestern Persia, shows in the discipline of the drawing. Centered medallions, borders that turn cleanly at the corners and vine scrolls planned in full before weaving began are the marks of Tabriz work. This rug keeps its medallion squarely at the center, with its border turning cleanly at every corner. Dusty rose, gray brown and cream carry the whole design.\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":68031546753337,"sku":"AL_11258_285x380","price":2400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11258_1.jpg?v=1794214560","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11258-9x12-persian-handmade-tabriz-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
