Antique Tabriz Rug 190x135cm
Only 1 in stock
The Mahi (Fish) design is a hallmark of Persian elegance, but this specific Tabriz carpet offers a rare technical twist that sets it apart from the rest. While the vast majority of Tabriz rugs are constructed using the symmetric Turkish knot, this exceptional piece is woven with the Persian (Asymmetric) knot.
The result is a carpet that is remarkably soft and pliable, offering a luxurious “drape” and a more fluid handle than traditional Tabriz weaves.
Exquisite Detail & Masterful Color
-
The Mahi Motif: The all-over Mahi-to-Hos (Fish in the Pond) design is a mesmerizing, rhythmic pattern that symbolizes life and movement.
-
The Palette: A striking royal blue ground provides a deep, regal backdrop that allows the intricate Mahi motifs to shimmer. This is perfectly balanced by a rich red border, creating a classic and commanding “Power Rug” aesthetic.
-
Natural Brilliance: Using only high-quality wool and organic natural dyes, the colors possess a luminous depth that will only grow more beautiful with age.
-
Fine Weave: The asymmetric knotting allows for incredible precision, resulting in a high knot density that captures the finest details of the floral and fish elements.
Why This Piece is a Unique Investment
Because it utilizes the Persian knot, this rug offers the structural durability of a Tabriz with the refined suppleness often found in Kashan or Isfahan weavings. It is a “best of both worlds” piece, ideal for a sophisticated office, a formal sitting room, or a private library.
