4393 · 9'4" x 12'6" Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug

The ivory border with its red tulip heads frames the deep red field of this lovely rug. The deep red field is covered with charming scrolling vines, palmettes and flower heads in ivory, pale green, rose and brown. There is no single medallion; large palmettes repeat down the center line, mirrored left and right. The field corners carry the same vines and palmettes, with no separate corner panel. A beautiful ivory main border carries large palmettes and red tulip heads in pale green and rose. A pale green guard stripe runs outside it and a narrow red and ivory stripe within. The pile is low in places along the center of the field, where the red reads paler and the weave shows through. The dense drawing holds the red, ivory and green in a steady balance. 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.

Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
