TABRIZ
Northwest Persian Antique Rug

(Connoisseur-Caliber) ("New Arrivals Gallery") This Tabriz mat woven in the late 19th century offers charming naturalistic imagery, a harmonious palette of evocative color, and graceful symmetry in seamlessly condensed dimensions. Sharing a visual paradigm inspired by the Ferahan playbook but with a Tabriz weave, an elegantly fringed four-petalled medallion drifts on a spacious glimmering reserve of red carnelian, striated by a masterly abrash touch. A quartet of bright golden spandrels trimmed with crystalline flowers is etched with spidery bolts in vivid azure. The narrowly proportioned border bands allow the interior composition to be fully expressed. Displaying a majestic visage that belies its diminutive size, this glowing artwork would sit happily in the almost infinite applications around any home or serve to diversify an eclectic collector’s antique rug portfolio.
