Antique Tabriz Persian Rug, 65 × 56 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Tabriz of 65 × 56 cm. The covered area is about 0.36 m² (2.1' × 1.8'). Tabriz is one of the oldest and most important weaving centres in Persia.

What it is made of

Pile material is given as wool, warp as cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as approx. 2 kg.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. A small format, at home in a hallway, beside a bed, or in front of a bench.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is under 200,000 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

How it reads

Colour is recorded as Weiß / beige. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.

Age and condition

Stated age: antique. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
