On the Design:

While time has softened the sharpness of the details, one can still discern a network of stylized floral motifs and curvilinear forms in this antique rug. Subtle hints of faded terracotta red and green tones peek through, particularly in the border and within the central medallion-like elements, lending a warm, earthy contrast to the dominant beige-brown field. Time has blessed this Tabriz with remarkable patina, softening the original colors into a harmonious palette that speaks to both its age and prestigious origin. Admirers of the craft will appreciate this as an extremely collectible piece of its period, like few special pieces carrying such a personal, intentional look and finesse. Overall the attention to detail in scale, texture and movement of color is matched only by its equally rare condition.
