Tabriz

Tabriz carpets are known for their fine weave, remarkable detailing, and intricate drawing. The classic central medallion of this oversize piece floats against a deep indigo ground. It is framed by corner pieces noteworthy for their inclusion of large, white, stylized lilies, which are mirrored within the medallion itself, creating a quatrefoil. The intricate border system utilizes palmettes alternating with particularly well-drawn intersecting elongated paisleys.
