A rare and beautiful early antique Tabriz rug with a glorious subtle palette, the design has been executed with refinement by the expert weaver. Woven in the late 19th century, around 1870-1880 with intricate corner spandrels and a sublime refined central medallion. The palette of colours with muted greens, blues and subtle pinks makes for an exquisite rare size Tabriz. Rarely do we find rugs from the city of Tabriz in a 9 x 6 feet size, as they did not produce this size often.
It does have some minor condition issues, with some wear showing and a minor area of damage to one corner. We could improve on the condition if requested, but felt the age of the rug and as it is only light wear, it was best to let someone decide. As it has an ancient look and feel and sometimes too much restoration can take away the character of an early piece. It is still very durable and with underlay supplied by ourselves this further aids its strength, adding body to the rug on a floor.
