Midnight Court: An Antique Persian Tabriz Masterpiece of Imperial Splendor

A masterpiece of regal refinement, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Tabriz rug is a triumph of Persian artistry at its most opulent and poetic. Every precious thread seems to breathe the grandeur of a bygone empire, where design and devotion intertwined to create woven masterpieces for royal courts and connoisseurs of taste. The composition—anchored by a concentric octofoil medallion—unfurls like a celestial garden at midnight, radiating depth and symmetry across a field steeped in centuries of tradition. This is the language of luxury rendered in wool, a testament to both human skill and divine inspiration.

The midnight ground, dense with a millefleur pattern, evokes an eternal garden in full bloom—an homage to the Persian concept of paradise. Blossoms, tendrils, and vinery interlace with rhythmic precision, creating a surface alive with movement yet serene in balance. Within this floral constellation, a delicate octofoil medallion glows in pale sapphire and rose tones, its intricately layered geometry reflecting the celestial order that has long inspired Tabriz weavers. Around it, sumptuous corner spandrels adorned with graceful vases allude to abundance, cultivation, and the refined pleasures of beauty.

Framed by an exceptional floral border—rendered in deep indigo and warm beige and flanked by an inner and outer meander of blossoms—this exclusive creation achieves perfect compositional harmony. Each border functions as both ornament and architecture, guiding the eye inward to the central medallion while echoing the natural rhythms of the garden motifs within. The dyes, softened by time, reveal an alchemy of color that only age and mastery can produce: coral rose, celadon, pale saffron, and moonlit blue—all woven into a tapestry of timeless sophistication.

Owning an exquisite work of art of this stature is to hold a chapter of Persian history beneath one’s feet—an artifact of enduring cultural prestige and unparalleled craftsmanship. Its presence elevates any interior, transforming space into experience. For collectors, curators, and aesthetes alike, this piece represents the height of refinement: a work not merely admired, but revered—a symbol of heritage, artistry, and the eternal pursuit of beauty.

Perfect for a great room, wine cellar, executive suite, conservatory, state room, royal suite, hotel lobby, music room, living room, dining room, drawing room, private library, billiards room, clubhouse, large home office, master retreat, private Chambers, studio, study, loft, lounge, entertainment parlor, trophy room, large bedroom, or formal sitting room.
