Persian Tabriz

£3,850£4,450In stock, ready to ship

A magnificent Persian Tabriz — hand-knotted in the historic weaving capital of Tabriz, renowned for producing some of the finest and most enduringly beautiful carpets in the world. Woven with premium quality wool over a sturdy cotton foundation, yielding an extraordinarily dense, silky pile that glows under light and offers exceptional softness — a true heirloom built to last well over a century. A commanding multi-pointed medallion bursts from the heart of a deep navy field, alive with scrolling vines, palmettes, and blossoming flowers in rich madder red, ivory, gold, and soft green. The grand, wide border repeats the floral theme in perfect harmony — every band carefully composed to frame the design with depth, richness, and perfect balance. At 396 × 290 cm, this is a truly impressive room-size statement piece — ideal for a substantial living room, formal dining space, or grand hallway. Tabriz carpets are celebrated for their formal elegance and enduring style; this piece brings warmth, colour, and gravitas to any interior — an investment in timeless beauty.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 240 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 4,272,057 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 9 months.

How that is worked out: 156 in × 114 in × 240 knots per sq. in. ≈ 4,272,057 — that is 396 × 290 cm converted to inches, because knot density is counted per square inch.

Magnify past 13× and the field stops being a picture and becomes what it actually is: rows of individual knots, each one a decision about colour made at a particular moment.

The same test works in the shop, on any rug, with no equipment. We wrote up how to do it in the back of the rug tells you everything.
