On the Design:


The polychromatic rug enjoys an antique wash creating its shabby-chic, distressed look while still being a young vintage carpet in great condition. This piece is likely to be a Tabriz design like few of its kind with such a wide border and elaborate cartouche floral patterns within. Furthermore the rug boasts the cloudband and vase pictorials of a more European style which the admirers of the craft might’ve seen in antique hunting rugs of this provenance - clearly connoting a weaver that knows their history.

A keen eye will note bird pictorials throughout the patterns - some of them even resembling phoenixes.

Playful, whimsical and full of life—a one-of-a-kind piece full of personal elements and unusual choices.

Condition:

The rug thrives in great condition for its age and lineage - ready for the floor. less
