Luxurious Fine Weave Small Size Antique Red Color 19th Century Persian Tabriz Rug 45762

Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century – Lush palmettes, bifurcated brackets and spiraling tendrils carefully outlined in contrasting colors create an exquisite allover arabesque that is set over a beautifully abrashed carmine red field. Multiple sets of borders and guard bands offset the regal combination of carmine and ultramarine blue featured within the field. The beautifully decorated minor borders and formal guard bands highlight the lavishly composed main borders, which depict grand floral motifs that are carefully outlined and linked by undulating tendrils. The elegant poly chromatic floral motifs featured in the main borders are boldly offset by the obscure midnight blue background. This well-defined antique Persian rug created in Tabriz circa 1880 features an outstanding selection of archetypal floral motifs rendered in an exquisite combination of beautifully oxidized colors.
