Super Fine Persian Tabriz — Silk & Wool

£2,800£3,200In stock, ready to ship

HA truly magnificent Superfine Persian Tabriz, masterfully hand-knotted in the historic weaving capital of Tabriz, North-West Iran — representing the absolute pinnacle of the region’s legendary weaving heritage. Woven from the finest silk and premium wool, with a silk warp foundation, this carpet possesses a luminous, silky sheen that catches the light and shifts beautifully as you move around it. A rich, deep crimson field centres upon an extraordinary symmetrical medallion — radiant ivory and cream, layered and shimmering with highlights of sapphire blue, soft gold, rose, and sage. Delicate scrolling vines, palmettes, and blossoming flowers spill outward in endless profusion — every petal and curve distinct, every detail crisp and precise. The design breathes with breathtaking depth and harmony; nowhere crowded, yet utterly rich and complete. The wide ivory border is a masterpiece in itself — a flowing garden of floral sprays and rosettes, echoing the colours of the central field with perfect balance and grace. Framed by fine guard stripes in deep red and navy, the whole composition feels composed, regal, and timeless. Woven to an exceptionally high knot density, the pile is smooth, dense, and luxuriously lustrous — soft yet resilient, built to endure and delight for generations. This is more than a carpet — it is a work of woven art: vibrant, refined, and incomparably elegant. A true collector’s piece — destined to be cherished and admired for lifetimes.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 400 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 1,736,003 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 15 months.

How that is worked out: 79 in × 55 in × 400 knots per sq. in. ≈ 1,736,003 — that is 200 × 140 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.
