5371 · 7'7" x 10'11" Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug

This dark blue rug is wonderful for its red lobed medallion, pointed at top and bottom. The field is dark blue, closely packed with the herati pattern, whose fish and leaf shapes mark abundance, in gold, cream and red. A splendid red lobed medallion, pointed at top and bottom, holds a teal core ringed in cream. Cream stepped spandrels fill the corners, carrying the same lattice in teal and gold. The beautiful red main border winds vines through teal cartouches, flower heads and leaves. A gold band of red cartouches runs inside it, and narrow pale stripes edge the border. The pile is full across the whole rug, without a bare spot. It suits a room that wants deep color: the red border warms the dark field, and the cream corners lift it. At 7'7" by 10'11", it fits a dining table for four with the chairs pulled out, or a living room with the sofa and chairs fully on it.

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.
