About This Tabriz

Where it comes from

This is a Tabriz Mahi, the fish-and-rosette lattice design that ranks among the most disciplined patterns to come out of that city's workshops, here woven in India at 304 x 254 cm (10'0" x 8'4"). Tabriz gave Persian carpet-making its reputation for exact, symmetrical knotting and drawn-to-cartoon precision, more often built around a medallion than not.

What you see

The field reads first as a deep brick red, warmer than this pattern usually allows, filled edge to edge with a fine ivory lattice of stylised fish and rosettes. It repeats without a break and without a centre; there is no medallion here, only the lattice continuing evenly across the whole field. The eye then meets a wide ivory border, carrying rust-red and navy floral cartouches, closed by a slim dark navy outer stripe and a narrower olive line.

How it was made

The precision comes from the symmetrical knot Tabriz weavers favour, tied here at 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre on a cotton warp, tight enough to keep the fish-and-rosette repeat crisp throughout. Silk runs through the wool pile, fine enough to hold a sharper line than wool alone and to lift a slight sheen where it catches light. Being recently woven, the wool carries one even dye lot, so the field holds a single level red with almost no shading from corner to corner.

At home

A piece this size sits comfortably under a dining table or in front of a sofa in a living room, and the brick red holds its own against dark wood or leather. The wool-and-silk pile is dense and firm underfoot, suited to a room in daily use rather than one kept for best. Sunlight crossing the field catches the silk in the lattice, lifting the ivory border so the pattern seems to shift very slightly through the day.

Questions about this rug

Which room is this rug for?

At 304 × 254 cm (7.72 m²) this is a large rug. It sits under a seating group with the front legs of sofa and chairs on it, or under a dining table for four. A table for six wants about 80 cm of clearance all round, and needs more.

Is this rug hand-knotted?

Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre; across 7.72 m² that is roughly 1.6 to 1.9 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.
