19th Century Persian Tabriz Carpet

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
A late 19th century Persian Tabriz rug, the abrashed green field with an allover lattice of flowering vinery and palmettes with dark brown accents, within a camel rosette and unusual floral motif border.

The origin of antique rug weaving is often disputed. Experts have uncovered splendid carpets in the palace of Cyrus the Great, who ruled the ancient Persian Empire in the 6th Century B.C. People crafted these antique carpets in very small villages and sold them for placement in residences. Many of the Persian rugs featured designs and weavings unique to the particular community or tribe in which they were created.
