5839 · 10' x 12'6" Persian Tabriz Oversized Rug

A charming lozenge medallion rests on this steel blue field. A steel blue field with a teal cast, clouded and faded by age, carries a central lozenge medallion in muted madder red around an ivory core. Small red pendants sit above and below it. Tiny flowers, shrubs and vase forms in olive, ivory and rose are scattered across the blue. Ivory corner pieces are worked with graceful flowering branches. The main border repeats the madder red, with beautiful ivory cartouches and little vases, held between navy guard bands set with diamonds and a blue and tan rope stripe. The pile is worn low across much of the field, especially on the left, and the blue has faded in soft clouds. The soft blue and red suit bedrooms and sitting rooms with pale oak floors and plaster or linen tones. At 10' 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.
