79132 Haji Jalili Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, 04'00 x 04'11.
This exquisitely crafted cotton and silk antique Persian Tabriz rug, attributed to the renowned workshops of Haji Jalili, showcases the pinnacle of classical weaving traditions combined with unmatched artistry. The central medallion, resplendent in navy blue and embellished with intricate sky blue arabesque contours, serves as the stunning visual core of the rug. Anchored by elegant ram's horn pendants, the medallion seems to float against the open, subdued brown field, offering a dramatic contrast that captivates and draws the viewer into the depths of its design. This emblematic feature exemplifies the infinite beauty and sophisticated grace inherent in Persian rug-making.
Around this central medallion, the rug unfurls with lavish sky blue corner spandrels that stretch along the sides, each adorned with rich acanthus vinery and a diverse array of botanical motifs. These spandrels, vibrant and meticulously detailed, not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the rug but also integrate seamlessly with the medallion, creating a continuous visual narrative that bridges the central field to the borders with fluid artistry and elegance.
The periphery of the Tabriz rug is defined by a densely patterned botanical border on a navy blue background, contrasting starkly with the lighter field. This border serves as a verdant frame, filled with intricate floral motifs and ornamental patterns that highlight the weaver's adeptness at crafting complex and visually stunning designs. The deep navy backdrop accentuates the vibrancy of the florals, making the border a robust and compelling element of the overall composition.
Finally, the artistic integrity and structural composition of the rug are fortified by triple layers of inner and outer floral meander guard bands. These bands are intricately detailed, enhancing the luxurious feel of the rug while securing the elaborate patterns within a meticulously defined boundary. Together, the harmonious interplay of the medallion, spandrels, and borders in this Haji Jalili Tabriz rug encapsulates centuries of weaving mastery, making it not only a magnificent floor covering but also a profound expression of historical artistry and cultural legacy.
