Gray Overdyed Persian Rug

9' 9'' x 12' 7'' | 297 cm x 383 cm

OVERVIEW

This 1960s Persian Tabriz has undergone a remarkable transformation through sophisticated overdyeing techniques. The hand-knotted wool now displays a smoky slate gray palette that veils the original intricate patterns beneath. What emerges is a fascinating dialogue between classical Persian structure and contemporary minimalism, where traditional forms become abstract expressions.

COLORS & DETAILS

Muted slate gray washes across the entire surface, punctuated by deeper charcoal outlines that hint at the original design. Pale ash highlights create subtle dimension while faint olive undertones add unexpected depth. This restrained palette creates a monochromatic composition where pattern becomes texture, and traditional motifs transform into abstract visual rhythm.

PHOTOGRAPHY NOTE

Our commitment to authentic representation guides every image. Studio lighting captures the rug's true essence, while showroom photographs in natural sunlight may display warmer undertones. Each piece appears exactly as it exists, without digital manipulation or enhancement.

CONDITION

Heritage and Craftsmanship

The Tabriz region represents one of Persia's most distinguished weaving traditions, known for exceptionally fine knotting and intricate classical designs. Through contemporary overdyeing, these vintage pieces discover new relevance while maintaining the structural integrity and extraordinary craftsmanship of their origins.

Design Elements

Originally a finely knotted Tabriz, this rug has been transformed through an intentional overdye process that leaves only whispered traces of its classic Persian structure. The faded grid suggests what was likely once an intricate medallion or floral lattice, now abstracted into a sophisticated near-monochrome composition. This transformation exemplifies how traditional textiles can evolve to meet contemporary design sensibilities while preserving their inherent character.

Placement

The substantial 9' 9'' x 12' 7'' dimensions make this rug ideal for anchoring large living spaces, open concept areas, or modern primary suites. Its neutral gray palette creates a versatile foundation that complements both minimal and eclectic interiors. The subtle patterning provides quiet sophistication that harmonizes with diverse design approaches, from industrial to scandinavian to contemporary.

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

Overdyed Persian rugs represent a fascinating evolution in textile arts. These transformed pieces honor their heritage while embracing contemporary aesthetics, creating unique expressions that bridge cultural traditions and modern design sensibilities.
