Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, Persia, Early 20th Century – This sophisticated antique Tabriz rug is a stunning representation of the city’s mastery of design, composition and color. The elegant medallion-and-pendant centerpiece is surrounded by a lush screen of sweeping floral sprays and elegant botanical motifs that are rendered in a chic low-chroma color palette. Undulating edge pieces adorned with branching floral shrubs frame the inner edges of the field while creating a beautiful segue into the exquisite borders. The richly detailed borders depict bracketed floral motifs that complement the sinuous vine scrolls, which are featured in the luxurious main borders. Spiraling vines, bifurcated calyces and secondary floral motifs are combined to create a well-composed border pattern that flatters the intricately decorated field of this extraordinary antique Persian rug from Tabriz.
