76328 Vintage Persian Tabriz Rug, 10'00 x 12'09.
A rare vision of grandeur, this hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Tabriz rug is an exquisite artifact of living history, where artistry and legend intertwine in every motif. Woven with the precision of a master and the soul of a poet, its antique-washed golden ochre field radiates an earthy warmth touched by time. A wide natural abrash flows organically across the field like a golden current—an authentic marker of age and the handmade nature of this precious textile jewel.
A sumptuous garden of paradise unfurls across the surface, alive with blooming palmettes, lotus blossoms, peonies, tulips, lilies, and rosettes. Graceful arabesque vinery, curled serrated leaves, and acanthus scrolls dance in rhythmic counterpoint, while a bestiary of symbolic elegance populates the scene—phoenix birds, deer, antelope, and peacocks, each woven with reverence, whispering tales of rebirth, grace, and celestial power. This exquisite work of art is a tribute to the signature paradise as imagined in Persian cosmology—lush, eternal, and transcendent.
Framing this opulent botanical realm is an elaborate Herati border, composed of stylized leaves and floral rosettes—a revered motif in Persian weaving that symbolizes protection and continuity. This regal border is flanked by inner and outer rosette meander guard bands, echoing the perfection of infinity and the measured rhythm of nature’s design.
A cherished treasure of cultural heritage and craftsmanship, this extraordinary masterpiece offers not merely decor but a gateway to legacy. For the discerning collector or patron of meaningful beauty, it stands as a symbol of refined status, timeless taste, and the ethical luxury of preserving human artistry.
