About This Tabriz
Where it comes from
This is a Tabriz, from the city workshops of north-west Persia that have set the benchmark for finely drawn carpets for five centuries, measuring 204 x 153 cm (6'8" x 5'0"). Tabriz weavers are known above all for precision and for their command of the medallion format, and this piece is a clear, textbook statement of that skill: quietly drawn, evenly balanced, nothing overstated.
What you see
The field is an even ivory, covered edge to edge in a fine Mahi lattice, the small fish-and-rosette motif repeating in scattered notes of navy, sage, mustard and pink. Out of that dense, busy ground rises a single scalloped medallion in rust-red, with two smaller pendant medallions echoing it along the vertical axis, and the effect is of a crisp, symmetrical shape floating cleanly above the pattern rather than fighting it. A charcoal-grey border, filled with small palmettes and vine and set off by a thin red guard stripe, closes the composition without competing with the field inside it.
How it was made
That calm is a matter of technique as much as design. Tabriz rugs are typically knotted in the symmetrical, or Turkish, knot, which locks each tuft square to the weave and gives the crisp, clean-edged outlines you can see in the medallion's scalloped border. The pile here is wool with an admixture of silk, and because silk fibre spins far finer than wool, it lets the weaver place more detail into the same square centimetre without the pattern blurring, which is exactly what carries the small fish motifs cleanly at this density of 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre. Clipped to a short 10 mm pile, the surface sits smooth and even, with a light sheen where the silk catches the light along the medallion's edge.
At home
At just over two metres by a metre and a half, this is a rug for a bedroom or a quiet seating corner, somewhere it can be read whole rather than glimpsed in passing. On a pale floor the ivory ground will sit close in tone and let the rust-red medallion carry the room; against darker furniture it will lift the space instead. The pile is dense and firm underfoot without being deep, so it wears well under daily use rather than asking to be spared it. As daylight moves across it through the day, the silk in the pile catches the light differently hour to hour, and the medallion seems to shift very slightly against its quiet ivory ground.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 204 × 153 cm (3.12 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 3.12 m² that is roughly 1.4 to 1.6 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.
