Tabriz / 10111

An elegant Tabriz in wool, 239 x 437 cm, this antique rug presents a classical medallion set into a scrolling floral field, contained by a sequence of floral borders. The colouration is quietly moderated, cream and gold on a neutral ground, producing a soft, time-worn depth and delicate surface sheen. Wear is low and sympathetic, with gentle abrash across the field and tidy edge character that preserves the design. Circa 1900 - 1915, the piece reads as a measured example of traditional Tabriz design and considered, tactile handwork. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
