Semi-Antique Persian Tabriz Rug

8'9" x 11'6" | 266 cm x 350 cm

OVERVIEW

This 1930s Persian Tabriz rug exemplifies the refined craftsmanship that elevated city workshops to international prominence during the golden age of production. Hand-knotted wool displays a central medallion flowing seamlessly into intricate fields of scrolling vines and blossoms, while the rich, time-softened palette demonstrates how superior materials and masterful dyeing techniques create depth that only improves with age.

COLORS & DETAILS

Sage green anchors the composition with sophisticated earthiness that provides dramatic contrast for the ornate motifs flowing across the field. Ivory and rust red create striking highlights throughout the scrolling patterns, while slate blue dominates the border with refined presence. Muted gold accents appear strategically to add warmth and visual depth, creating a palette that balances natural sophistication with earthy accessibility.

Heritage and Craftsmanship

Tabriz workshops during the 1930s represented the culmination of Persian weaving's urban traditions, where master craftsmen working with the finest materials had perfected techniques that allowed for the most complex curvilinear designs. This period produced rugs that demonstrated how technical precision could serve sophisticated artistic vision while maintaining the cultural authenticity that defines genuine Persian artistry.

Design Elements

The central medallion establishes compositional focus while flowing organically into the surrounding field, creating unified design movement where individual elements serve larger artistic purposes. Scrolling vines and blossoms demonstrate exceptional drawing precision, while the border framed by repeating cartouches and floral elements provides formal architectural containment. The precise execution balances formality with ornate detail, creating stately presence that commands attention without overwhelming spaces.

Placement

The substantial 8'9" x 11'6" dimensions make this rug ideal for formal living rooms, dining areas, or master bedrooms where its sophisticated presence can enhance traditional or transitional furnishing schemes. The sage green ground with ivory, rust, and gold accents creates a rich foundation that particularly complements spaces seeking authentic elegance and cultural depth.

Care Recommendations

To preserve the rug's beauty:

  • Rotate periodically for even wear

  • Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting

  • Address spills immediately by blotting, never rubbing

  • Professional cleaning recommended annually

  • Avoid direct sunlight to maintain color integrity

Semi-antique Tabriz rugs from this exceptional period showcase Persian weaving's highest achievements, where centuries of accumulated expertise produced pieces that transcend mere decoration to achieve genuine artistic merit. Their stately character continues to enhance contemporary interiors with authentic sophistication that reflects true cultural heritage.
