Tabriz

This one-of-a-kind piece in dark red unites traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. With a knot density of around 160,000 knots per m², the demanding work shows above all in the precise drawing of the design and the fine execution of the details. At 322 × 100 cm it is well suited as a runner or hallway rug. The harmonious colouring and the characteristic texture give any room an exclusive, homely atmosphere. A rug of this quality is far more than a piece of furnishing – it is a piece of traditional textile art with individual character and lasting value.

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.

Material

The pile of this Tabriz was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a whole range of impressive properties: thanks to the natural lanolin in the wool, the surface repels droplets of water and is therefore naturally protected against dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, helps regulate the indoor climate and absorbs sound.

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

Condition

This Tabriz has a story to tell. It was knotted around 86. It has been thoroughly cleaned and is in good, though only partly restored, condition. The pile is worn in places. The fringes could do with a repair. The edges are damaged in parts. We have not fully restored this Tabriz, because we feel it has a special presence just as it is. If you would like us to, we will of course take the restoration further for you. We can bring almost any rug back to near-perfect condition.
