This Persian Tabriz rug, woven circa 1940, exemplifies traditional artistry from one of the most renowned carpet-weaving centers in Iran. With its wool pile on a cotton foundation, this rug combines durability with aesthetic appeal. The primary background color is ivory, enhanced by an elegant sage border, which adds a sophisticated touch to its design.
Tabriz became a significant center for carpet weaving in the 1500s, particularly during the Safavid Dynasty, which established the city as a hub for high-quality and elaborate carpet production. The region attracted skilled artisans and designers, contributing to its rich legacy in carpet weaving. The intricate designs typical of Tabriz rugs often feature floral motifs, medallions, and geometric patterns, incorporating elements like palmettes, weeping willows, and cypress trees, which are evident in this rug.
Historically, despite periods of turmoil such as the Afghan invasions in the early 18th century, the craft of Tabriz carpet weaving endured and revived, gaining popularity once again in the late 19th and into the 20th century. The designs evolved over time to reflect contemporary tastes while preserving traditional elements, as seen in the delicate floral patterns and complex motifs of this piece.
The rug's detailed and intricate design is a testament to the high level of craftsmanship involved. The central area is densely packed with floral and vine patterns in earthy tones of beige, rust, brown, and cream, creating a rich and complex visual composition. The multiple borders further enhance the design, each with its distinct pattern. The outermost border is narrow, featuring a small, repeated floral design, while the subsequent border is wider with medallions and floral motifs. The inner border, significant for its rust color, contains larger and denser floral patterns.
Symmetry is a key feature of this rug, particularly notable in the central medallion and the repeating border patterns. The overall design demonstrates a meticulous balance between dense central patterns and less densely packed borders, creating a harmonious and cohesive appearance.
This antique Tabriz rug reflects the enduring legacy and artistic heritage of Persian carpet weaving. Its combination of intricate design, quality materials, and historical significance makes it a valuable piece representative of the cultural traditions of Tabriz artisans.

Don’t take our word for it


Last fall, my husband and I purchased a gorgeous silk from you for our Boston Condo. Based on the quality of your rugs and customer service, we decided to visit you again to purchase rugs for our Connecticut home. Luckily, we received your postcard about the tent sale and came home with two more stunning rugs.


I can't say enough good things about this store, especially Susanne and Breanna. I shop at many rug places as I am an interior designer looking for very specific rugs all the time. No one out there compares to this store and their wonderful Sales associates. Thank you Susanne and Breanna for all your help!


Over the past year we purchased three rugs, as well as carpet from L&A. Our experience could not have been more positive and we love what we purchased.
In addition, every single person
in the showroom was beyond helpful, knowledgeable and kind. It was truly a pleasure. Thank you!


Never have I enjoyed spending money as much as at Landry & Arcari!!! Thank you so much for your attention and guidance. The rug I chose grounds the furniture and makes the living room. It is so beautiful and I really appreciate all of your help.
