Overview

This Tabriz comes from Iran and measures 100 × 160 cm. It covers approximately 1.6 m², or 3.3' × 5.2'. Tabriz is one of the oldest and most important weaving centres in Persia.

Construction

The pile is 100% Schurwolle mit Seide, on a warp of 100% cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 500,000–599,999 knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

How it reads

The stated colourway is red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
