Antique Tabriz Persian Rug 43397

Antique Tabriz Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century - A classic Persian medallion design of arabesque vines and floral sprays ripples outward across the field of this sumptuous antique Tabriz. The scalloped ogival medallion and the corresponding cornerpieces have all the grace and fluid balance of the great Safavid Persian forerunners, but using a softer more decorative palette of blues, soft red, and ivory that offers a subtlety amenable to modern decor. An interlacing arabesque vinescroll main border, along with minor vinescroll borders, draws similarly off the classical Persian tradition, but using a smaller scale and detail that nicely complements the grandeur of the field design.
