79250 Vintage Ivory Chinese Tabriz Rug, 03'01 x 05'02.
Evoking the grandeur of a bygone era where imperial refinement met artistic mastery, this hand-knotted wool vintage Chinese Tabriz rug radiates with aristocratic elegance and compositional poise. At the center lies a concentric lozenge medallion—its cusped edges rendered in regal tones of red and blue—punctuated by a central rosette and anchored by refined trefoil pendants at either end. This medallion, a symbol of celestial harmony and classical symmetry, floats serenely across an ivory field that evokes the purity of untouched parchment, offering a canvas upon which a symphony of floral opulence unfolds.
Delicately strewn across the open ground, flower sprays and exuberant bouquets bloom with effortless charm, each blossom hand-drawn with a painter’s sensibility and a jeweler’s precision. The corner spandrels mirror the central medallion in both form and spirit, their cusped silhouettes echoing the central motif with quiet reverence. These mirrored arcs lend a sense of balance and architectural sophistication, framing the floral tableau like an ornate window into an eternal spring. The interplay between structure and softness imbues the composition with a refined rhythm—a choreographed harmony of line and bloom.
Encircling the field is a sumptuous border, drenched in navy blue, where lotus blossoms and rosette bouquets entwine in arabesque splendor. This border, flanked with classical meander guard bands in soft complementary hues, creates a sense of regal containment—like a silk ribbon binding a perfumed letter or a gold bezel cradling a precious stone. The color palette whispers of refinement: ivory, red, and navy are lifted by cloudlike tones of sky blue, lavender, mauve, and jade green, kissed with accents of rose and celadon that lend the piece a luminous delicacy and cultivated charm.
This Chinese interpretation of a Persian Tabriz masterpiece is more than a floor covering; it is a wearable heirloom of interior haute couture. It speaks to collectors and aesthetes who seek pieces that transcend trend—offering instead a narrative woven from heritage, beauty, and sophistication. Ideal for gallery-like salons, serene studies, or palatial foyers, this rug bestows upon its surroundings an aura of cultivated luxury and timeless romanticism, forever rooted in the visual language of elegance.
