The most revered floral weaving style that emerged from the city of Tabriz in the 19th century, Tabriz rugs also exclusively employed the center medallion and corner piece format, with only a fraction presenting overall designs. This landmark, remarkably well-preserved over 180-year-old piece reveals a masterful command of a far less encountered multi-medallion approach, infusing fresh creativity that is seamlessly executed with consummate craftsmanship and aesthetic nuance. Presenting a stunning abundance of regal red tones only very rarely encountered in such profusion in a Tabriz carpet, the notably open reserve demonstrates astonishing dexterous abrash that transitions from soft terracotta to striking garnet and ruby red as it ascends. Twelve antique ivory medallions, each with its own slightly modified outline and internal pattern, are artfully juxtaposed by equally engaging cobalt Red rosettes. Resale Right: No! 11' 6" x 14' 4" 351cm x 437cm 2nd Half, 19th Century
