About This Tabriz
Where it comes from
Tabriz is one of Persia's great weaving cities, and this piece is a rug of 357 x 248 cm (11'9" x 8'2") in that tradition. Tabriz workshops draw their designs on paper before a single knot is tied, and what the city is known for above all is precision: a tight, symmetrical knot that holds a pattern exactly where the drawing puts it. This is a textbook example, and an unusually clean one at that.
What you see
The first impression is a pale, sandbeige field, covered edge to edge in a fine dark lattice, the Mahi or Herati pattern that Tabriz weavers have drawn for centuries. Out of that dense ground rises a bold, lobed medallion in brick-red and dark maroon, with matching pendants above and below it, and dark taupe-brown spandrels anchoring the corners. A narrow border in cream carries red and ochre palmettes on a trail of olive-green, quiet enough not to compete with the field it frames. Nothing in the design is left loose; the medallion sits crisply against the lattice, each edge scalloped and exact.
How it was made
That exactness is a matter of knot and material as much as drawing. The pile is wool with silk, and silk spins far finer than wool, which lets the weaver tie more knots into the same square metre without losing definition — here between 501,000 and 640,000 per square metre, a density that puts this rug's field pattern within a few millimetres of the cartoon it was drawn from. At only 7 mm, the pile stays close and flat, so the lattice reads as fine line rather than blurred texture. The workshop, Abdollahi, has signed the piece in a small woven cartouche near one corner, a mark of a maker standing behind their own precision.
At home
A rug of this size sits comfortably under a dining table or across a living room seating group, and either room will suit it. The sandbeige field lifts a pale floor without shouting, while the brick-red medallion holds its own against dark wood or leather furniture nearby. Underfoot it is dense and firm, the low pile settling flat under table legs and chairs, built for a room that gets daily use rather than one kept for best. As daylight moves across it through the day, the fine lattice catches and loses the light in turn, and the precision of the drawing is the thing you keep noticing.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 357 × 248 cm (8.85 m²) this is a very large rug. It carries a whole seating group with every furniture leg on it, or a dining table with the chairs pushed back. In a small room it becomes the floor rather than a rug.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 501,000 to 640,000 knots per square metre; across 8.85 m² that is roughly 4.4 to 5.7 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
This pile contains silk and is more delicate than pure wool. Vacuum without a rotating brush and along the pile, do not beat it, and keep it out of permanent direct sun. Blot spills at once with a light cloth, never rub. For a proper clean a silk-blend rug belongs in expert hands — we handle that for pieces bought from us.
