Persian Tabriz Rug – Subtle Sophistication in Neutrals
Size: 9'1" x 12'8" | Origin: Tabriz, Iran | Age: c. 1950s
If you’re drawn to understated luxury, this Persian Tabriz is calling your name. With its earthy tones, fine craftsmanship, and classic floral elegance, this rug is not just decor—it’s a refined statement piece for sophisticated interiors.
Woven in the mid-20th century, this large Tabriz rug was designed with timeless balance in mind. The warm beige, camel, mocha, and chocolate brown tones create a calming, luxurious effect—perfect for neutral-focused interiors or layered looks with antique furniture.
🧵 The Weave: Tight, Refined & Impressive
Tabriz rugs are known for their technical mastery—and this piece delivers.
It features a very fine Persian (asymmetrical) knot, estimated at around 250–300 KPSI, which allows for crisp detail and smooth floral curves.
You can clearly see the complexity of the medallion, the mirrored arabesques, and the border vines—all drawn with painterly control.
A rug of this size and fineness could take over 14 months to complete, with 2–3 expert weavers working full-time.
If produced today, this craftsmanship alone would cost $6,000–$8,000+ just in labor, without even counting materials or finishing.
🐑 Wool & Cotton: Soft Texture, Long Life
This rug is woven from high-quality, tightly spun wool on a cotton foundation.
The pile is clipped short, as is typical with high-end Tabriz rugs, giving it a velvety surface that reflects light beautifully and resists crushing under furniture.
This texture also makes it ideal for dining rooms, offices, or elegant living areas—anywhere you want class without fuss.
🌿 Color Palette: Timeless Neutrals from Nature
This rug features a neutral botanical palette, made entirely from natural dyes.
The tones include:
Soft beige and cream
Light walnut and cocoa brown
Muted hints of faded rose and parchment
These plant-based dyes age gracefully, creating depth and variation (known as abrash) across the rug. It’s a living patina that can’t be duplicated by synthetic colors.
🏛️ From Tabriz: A Legacy of Rug Excellence
Tabriz is one of Iran’s oldest and most respected weaving cities, with a heritage that dates back to the 15th century. It has produced carpets for royal courts, collectors, and luxury export markets for generations.
Unlike tribal rugs that reflect spontaneous creativity, Tabriz carpets are often architecturally designed, drawn from detailed sketches (cartoons), and balanced with precision.
This piece reflects that legacy with perfect symmetry and regal restraint.
