TABRIZ "Fine Tabriz with Silk" 360 x 345 cm. 100% pure wool with fine silk borders. Very fine knotting. A large, masterfully knotted Tabriz carpet with rich silk decoration. The nearly square, monumental field of this magnificent Tabriz carpet captivates with its exceptionally delicate patterning and a masterful, light color composition. The center is dominated by a relief-like, multi-pass rosette medallion (central star), surrounded by dense floral tendrils, palmettes, and peony blossoms on a salmon- to rosewood-colored ground. The generous use of fine silk in the outlines and details of the flowers lends the entire pattern a fascinating, silky sheen and a three-dimensional depth. Particularly noteworthy is the artful, multi-banded border: The wide main border on a moss-green and olive-colored ground features a highly decorative interplay of elegantly curving volutes, colorful floral cartouches, and exquisitely rendered pheasant-like birds of paradise. These figurative depictions attest to the high artistry of Persian knotting and lend the carpet special collector’s value. The main band is framed by narrower accompanying borders featuring delicate floral garlands on a rosé and sand-colored background. An exquisite and colorfully harmonious masterpiece of classical elegance and artisanal perfection. In very good condition for its age. Beautiful, even pile, minimal signs of wear, fringes fully intact. Bears the original import warranty label on the back (Lot No. 104, Item C-9138-001, Control No. L-00628). NO SHIPPING TO THE U.S.
