Antique Persian Tabriz carpet, early 20th century A graceful allover palmette design unfurls across the soft cocoa field of this elegant antique Tabriz. The scale of the floral details is fine and delicate, as is the soft tone-on-tone palette. The border shares the same coloration of the field, but it is distinguished by somewhat more darkly outlined repeating palmettes in a different configuration than the field. A supremely decorative piece.
