Persian Tabriz

£4,250£5,250In stock, ready to ship

A spectacular, generously proportioned Persian Tabriz carpet — hand-knotted in the ancient city of Tabriz, widely regarded as one of the oldest and most distinguished weaving centres in the whole of Persia. For centuries, Tabriz has set the standard for refined design, exceptional knotting precision, and enduring beauty — and this piece stands as a magnificent example of that noble heritage. Woven from the finest hand-spun wool, chosen for its natural lustre, deep colour depth, and remarkable resilience, with a sturdy cotton foundation for lasting strength and stability — this is a carpet built to remain beautiful for generations. A breathtaking, radiating medallion bursts from the heart of the field — glowing in ivory, sky blue, and warm gold — set against a sumptuous crimson ground alive with scrolling vines, blossoming flowers, and delicate leafwork, each motif rendered with extraordinary clarity and finesse. The wide, elegantly composed border unfolds in perfect harmony, carrying the same rich colour palette and intricate floral language, framing the field with timeless grace and grandeur. At 305 cm × 401 cm, this is a truly impressive room-size carpet — ideal as the centrepiece of a spacious living room, formal dining room, library, or grand entrance hall. Its warm, vibrant tones bring instant life and richness to traditional interiors, while its superb craftsmanship and elegant symmetry make it equally striking as a statement piece in modern settings. Woven entirely by hand over more than a year by master artisans, every knot represents patience, skill, and artistry passed down through generations. More than a floor covering, this is a genuine heirloom — a work of art that carries within it the culture, soul, and enduring beauty of Persian weaving.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 220 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 4,115,912 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 14 months.

How that is worked out: 158 in × 119 in × 220 knots per sq. in. ≈ 4,115,912 — that is 401 × 301 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.
