Description

This beautiful jewel-like silk rug was probably produced in the famous Haji Jalili workshop in Tabriz around 1900. The silk quality is exceptional, soft and glossy, and the knot count is high as one would expect. Note the format and dimensions of the rug which is very typical of Tabriz weaving of the period. The design is composed of an unusual circular medallion on a ruby red field, a quarter of which is repeated in each corner of the field. The medallion is surrounded by delicate floral forms and leaves in a lovely balanced format. I particularly like the main border which is composed of repeating floral clusters on a pale blue background. The whole composition is elegant and masterfully executed by one of the most famous Persian master weavers of the period. Only a few colours have been used to create this beauty which I believe adds to the luxurious feeling that it exudes. Cherished through the generations, it has clearly been used sparingly and with care, and has survived in excellent condition. A recent professional cleaning has enhanced the glossiness of the silk.

Date of Manufacture

Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs has dated this Antique Silk Rug to the 1900s.

FAQs

Tabriz rugs originate from the city of Tabriz in north-west Iran, one of the oldest rug-weaving centres in the Middle East, known for exceptional craftsmanship and diverse classical design repertoires.

These pieces are traditionally hand-knotted using fine silk or wool foundations and piles, employing asymmetrical Persian knots that allow for intricate detail and high knot densities.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-knotted foundation, natural vegetable dyes, knot count per square inch, and characteristic wear patterns consistent with age.

Antique rugs provide textural contrast and historical depth, functioning effectively as focal points in minimalist rooms or as complementary layers within eclectic schemes.

Preservation requires professional specialist cleaning, protection from direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, and the use of appropriate underlays to prevent friction wear.
