Tabriz / 17617

This Tabriz antique rug measures 229 x 335 cm and offers a quietly worn interpretation of a formal floral composition. Faded teal sits within a ground of neutral and brown notes, while brick red details and ivory highlights bring shape to the scrolling pattern. The field is organised with repeating floral motifs, and the border settles the design with palmettes and finely patterned guards. Circa 1920 - 1935, it shows medium distress, softened contrast, and visible wear that has mellowed the wool surface into a layered, lived-in finish. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
