Discover the grandeur of this substantial Tabriz rug, a masterpiece hailing from the historic weaving centers of modern-day Persia. Spanning dimensions of 2.86 by 2.35 meters, this woolen marvel is a testament to the rich weaving traditions of its origin.
Its design is anchored by a striking pattern of eight medallions, each echoing the silhouette of an elephant’s foot through an octagonal formation. This distinctive motif, known variously as GOL or GUL, is a revered element in Persian rug design, symbolizing a legacy of artistic expression woven into every thread.
Within each medallion, the Boteh motif emerges, partially obscured as though viewed through an aperture, lending an intriguing sense of depth and mystery to the pattern. This intentional truncation evokes a narrative of continuity, suggesting an infinite repetition beyond the rug's visible boundaries.
The backdrop for these medallions is a profoundly dark hue, a color so deep that it teeters on the brink of black, yet retains the richness of dark green. This choice of base color enhances the visual impact of the GOL patterns, making them appear as if they are celestial bodies suspended in the vastness of the night sky.
Amidst these dominant motifs, the rug’s field is intricately detailed with four rows of Boteh patterns, aligned horizontally to create a rhythm across the expanse. This repetition is punctuated by floral designs, each accompanied by leaves, adding to the rug's intricate narrative.
In total, twenty-four of these floral accents grace the rug, enriching its complex aesthetic and imbuing it with a sense of natural abundance.The main guard border of the rug is a canvas for the Boteh pattern, meticulously placed to resonate with the rug's core themes.
Flanked by two additional guard borders, this central band serves as a visual echo of the rug's rich symbolism, reinforcing its narrative depth.
The Boteh motif, reminiscent of the Paisley pattern, carries profound significance, symbolizing rebirth, hope, and the eternal cycle of life. Its presence in the rug is not merely decorative but serves as a beacon of fertility and continuity, echoing through the ages from various cultures including Indian, Turkmen, Persian, and Caucasian traditions.
Owning this rug means more than adding a piece of decor to your space; it means embracing a piece of history, a narrative woven in asymmetry that flows with life. It invites you to delve into the depths of its design, to explore the meanings imbued within its patterns, or simply to bask in the sheer beauty of its craftsmanship.
This Tabriz rug is an invitation to immerse yourself in the world of Persian artistry, to become the steward of a piece that transcends the ordinary, offering not just aesthetic delight but a connection to the timeless stories and symbols that have shaped human culture.
Acquire this rug and welcome into your home a profound work of art, a testament to the enduring beauty and depth of Persian weaving.
