Tabriz in northwestern Iran is one of the oldest carpet weaving cities in the world. The city has produced an extraordinary range of carpet styles over centuries, from formal court pieces to village florals, and this piece sits firmly in the classical tradition. It is woven in Iran with wool pile and silk highlights on cotton at 256 knots per square inch.
The dark midnight blue ground at 6 ft 9 in x 9 ft 10 in is rich and commanding. A genuine Iranian Tabriz at this size with silk highlights is a piece of considerable craft. The silk traces the design motifs, catching light differently from the surrounding wool and giving the composition a depth that the photographs do not fully convey.
In your home: Works in formal sitting rooms and dining rooms. The navy ground pairs with dark timber, cream walls and both classic and contemporary luxury interiors.
