It features a delicate central medallion set against a luminous creamy yellow field, highlighted by soft accents of blush and sage green.

On the Design:

This rug is a poetic expression of faded romance, where the grand design of a Persian court carpet is seen through a veil of sunlight and age.

Rooted in the high traditions of Tabriz weaving, its architecture is defined by a strong, centralized medallion and majestic corner spandrels, yet the overall pattern is rendered with an appealing softness.

The palette is bright and luminous, featuring a generous, glowing field of creamy ivory and pale yellow. This light backdrop allows the gentle color accents to bloom: the central medallion and surrounding vines are touched with faded blush-pink and rose tones, complemented by soft hints of pale blue and sage green in the outer field and border. The contrast is subtle and harmonious, feeling beautifully sun-bleached.

Admirers of the craft will appreciate the fine, dense detail characteristic of Tabriz provenance, giving the piece a refined, regal quality.

This rug is a sophisticated narrative, fusing the ancient discipline of Tabriz artistry with a distinctive, modern delicacy that gives it a wonderfully light and airy presence.

Condition:

This vintage rug prevails in good condition, with an antique wash that creates the look of a distressed classic in a low-pile construction; ready for the floor. See less
