Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, Persia, Early 20th Century – Reminiscent of a lavishly decorated Chintz textile, this phenomenal antique Persian rug is a stunning example of the style, composition and detail that weavers in Tabriz successfully capture. The lavish field is decorated from edge to edge with a stunning variety of harmonious floral sprays, feathery Saz leaves, ornamental botehs and branching shrubs that are juxtaposed against a creamy white field. The grand arabesque artfully emanates from a central rosette that is flanked by extended floral motifs. The harmonious composition incorporates a diverse variety of poly chromatic floral emblems that artfully flow together. Intricate floral guard bands, formal outer borders accented with delicate coronets and richly colored main borders adorned with extraordinary Shah Abbasi palmettes complete the richly detailed composition of this stellar antique Tabriz rug.
