Intricately hand-knotted with precision and care, the rug features vibrant floral elements in green, red, pink, and blue that create a rich tapestry of color against the deep ground. Striking saffron yellow corner spandrels add a sophisticated accent that lifts the composition and gives the whole piece an unusual and distinctive warmth.

A rich red border frames the design with bold, confident authority. Tabriz, the ancient capital of Persian Azerbaijan and one of the great trading cities of the Silk Road, has been a center of carpet weaving for centuries. The city's workshops produce rugs of extraordinary technical precision and design sophistication — ranging from the classical floral medallion compositions of the great 19th century masters to the bold geometric and Mahi patterns for which Tabriz is equally celebrated. Tabriz rugs are among the most recognized and sought-after Persian carpets in the world.
