Origin

Standing on Persia's northern border at the crossroads of countless caravan routes, the city of Tabriz (also written Tabris or Täbriz) has always been a melting pot of different ethnic and religious groups. Although the city lies on the border with Azerbaijan, the dialect spoken in Tabriz is related to Turkish. The bazaars of Tabriz have traded in craftwork for centuries, and above all in rugs from the surrounding villages.

The pattern of this rug takes its inspiration from the designs of classic Chinese Tabriz rugs. This rug, however, was knotted in China.

Material

The pile of this Chinese Tabriz is knotted from what is known as kork wool. Kork wool – also spelled kurk – is a particularly fine-threaded knotting yarn with an almost velvety feel. It is taken from the neck, the belly and the inner sides of the sheep's legs and is of especially high quality.

The weft and warp threads of this Chinese Tabriz are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation weave.
