Persian Tabriz Rug, Iran, Contemporary – Woven in Tabriz, this ornate Persian rug features elaborate floral motifs and hairline vine-scrolls rendered in a stately color palette. Sinuous vine-scrolls featuring bifurcated fronds and poly-chromatic leaves with dimensional accents in olive green, earthy brown and golden-yellow pop off the somber field. Dramatically curving vine-scrolls gently wrap around the contour of the floral medallion and burnt orange pendants. Radiant spandrels adorned with floral chains tie together the magenta, smoky gray and golden-yellow color scheme that continues through the borders. Subdued guard-bands decorated with soft pink flowers and ornate vine-scrolls surround the formal main borders, which feature airy vine-scrolls, trailing floral sprays and loosely spaced elements set over a rich burgundy background. Strong colors add a level of depth, gravity and worldliness to the delicate vine scrolls and floral motifs.
