It features a delicate, all-over pattern set against a luminous creamy beige field, accented by unique, fine details in pale sky blue and wisps of chocolate brown.

On the Design:

This rug is a beautifully drawn vision of a Persian garden, where the intricate motifs appear as if sketched onto the woven surface in delicate inks.

Rooted in the high traditions of Tabriz weaving, the pattern is an expansive all-over floral and geometric tracery, with a soft central definition that avoids a heavy medallion focus.

The palette is a brilliant study in light and fine detail, dominated by an expansive field of luminous creamy beige and pale ivory.

The complexity of the vinery and scattered palmettes is traced with exquisite precision: fine outlines in soft chocolate brown offer grounding detail, while delicate floral accents bloom in pale sky blue and soft sage green.

This unique combination gives the rug a fresh, airy quality, almost like antique botanical plates.

Admirers of the craft will appreciate the precision and fine knotting of Tabriz provenance, which retains its regal quality even with this distinct, sketched color presentation.

This piece is a sophisticated fusion of ancient discipline and modern lightness, offering a foundation that is both historically rich and profoundly charming.

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
