About This Tabriz
Where it comes from
The Tabriz is Persia's benchmark weaving city, and this piece shows exactly why. Measuring 229 x 165 cm (7'6" x 5'5"), it is drawn in the classic medallion style for which Tabriz workshops have set the standard for five centuries: a large ivory medallion anchored by two pendants, one above and one below, running the full length of the field like a spine.
What you see
That axis is the first thing you notice, glowing pale against a deep wine-red ground. Around it the field is dense with curling floral vines, and woven among them, most thickly near the medallion, are small stylised birds, a quiet figurative note in a design that could easily have stayed purely botanical. The scalloped edge of the medallion picks up the same curling line as the vines, so the whole centre feels drawn with one hand. A wide sand-beige border, close to a fifth of the rug's width, frames it all with rows of floral cartouches and green palmette medallions, cool against the red and warm against the beige.
How it was made
This is where the discipline shows. Tabriz weavers work from a drawn cartoon rather than memory, and the symmetric, or Turkish, knot they favour locks each tuft against its neighbours, holding the vine's curl and the bird's small outline exactly where the drawing placed them. At 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre, that outline can be this fine because silk runs through the wool pile: silk spins thinner than wool, so more of it fits into the same space, and the detail sharpens accordingly. A cotton warp keeps the whole structure stable underneath, and a 7 mm pile means the wool still reads as a proper, substantial rug rather than a flat picture.
At home
A rug this size sits well in a dining room, under a table for six, or anchoring a seating group in a living room. The wine-red holds its ground against dark wood and does not fade into a pale floor either; the ivory medallion does the lifting, catching whatever light crosses the room and drawing the eye back to it. Underfoot it is dense and firm, built for daily use rather than display, and the small birds in the vines are the sort of thing you keep noticing, months in.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 229 × 165 cm (3.78 m²) this is a medium rug. It works in front of a sofa, in front of a bed or in a study. It is too small for a dining table — there you want about 80 cm of clearance so a chair does not tip over the edge when pushed back.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre; across 3.78 m² that is roughly 1.7 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.
