Authentic 1900s Persian Tabriz Yellow Handmade Wool Carpet

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
This turn of the century finely knotted antique Northwest Persian Tabriz rug features an all-over design of palmettes and floral vinery in shades of inky blue and rust against a soft abrashed camel field. The overall muted patina of the carpet is representative of classic antique Oriental rug weaving. The famous textile-manufacturing city of Tabriz, the Azerbaijani-populated province in the north west of Iran, boasts one of the oldest rug weaving centers in the world and produces a large variety of carpets characterized by having an especially fine knot density (indicative of high quality hand-knotted rugs). An antique oriental rugs can be made of cotton or silk and woven as a pile carpet or flat-weave. A refined palette reliant on copper tones, terracotta and ivory, with shades of blue and subtle touches of gold, green and salmon are prevalent in these carpets.
