Persian Tabriz Superfine Rug - 2.79x2.04

This truly amazing pictorial carpet was made in the city of Tabriz. It is a hand made wool carpet that has the most charming and magical combination of colours. The hues and tones of the cartouche medallions are a perfect focus point and  a strong component of the carpet as is its shape. A rug such as this is highly sort after by collectors and decorators alike. \n \nTabriz is situated in north-western Iran, in the province of Azerbaijan, and is the capital of a very important carpet weaving region. The town is over 1000 years old and even centuries ago it was famous as a cultural centre. The Tabriz carpets are of very good quality, finely knotted and made of strong lustrous wool. There are old carpets in private homes, used for years, which are still in excellent condition, and the colours have kept their brightness. At the beginning of the century, the finest carpets had a silk pile. These are rare pieces and are among the most beautiful examples of Persian carpets. The usual Tabriz design is a medallion surrounded by flowers and tendrils; however, some carpets have a design with repeating patterns. \n \n \n \nThe Faeghi family are the name you can trust.
