Antique Tabriz rugs such as this quintessential, tremendously innovative piece can capture a regal ambiance of sublime beauty. Here, the field consists of perfectly executed sun motifs interrupted only by stylized, well-chiseled flowering boughs. The border is exquisite, astonishingly densely filled with a marvelous detailed alternating sunburst and vase design. Its utterly pleasing symmetry accomplishes the almost impossible, maintaining an artistic aliveness within such precisely balanced forms. Perhaps above all its exciting attributes, the luxury of this carpet’s silky, champagne toned surface, augmented by its heavier pile condition, is thrilling when viewed in person.
