Hand-knotted in wool originating from India circa 1890-1900, this antique rug employs a unique Tabriz Persian rug style unlike almost anything in our collection with this much emphasis on intricate pictorial motifs. Most notably our team has seldom seen an antique Tabriz rug with this preference of both human love and animal pictorials, let alone prevailing in the border as the dominant motif as in this subtle homage to neoclassic cartouche patterns. The juxtaposition of these depictions with the more animal-focused, less symmetrical pictorials—ranging from horseback warriors, lions, stag and deer, and bird depictions create an entirely unique sense of movement that draws the eye in such a pleasing allure. This apt control highlights the range of amazing and varied blue, pink, red, green, and gold colorways prevailing against the more forgiving beige-brown field and the likewise gentler tones of green in the floral patterns, all elements remarking a distinctive approach negotiating the sensibilities of both the European and Oriental rug market for an iconic Persian rug look for this period. Connoisseurs will note the emphasis of contrasting subtexts of war and love depicted in the field and border respective, connoting a fascinating variety of cultural interpretations ranging from hunting, marital, and royalty allusions in an ideal condition. Designers will further note the subtle cream and pink radiance in the beige colorway in considering this magnificent selection for projects welcoming opulence in an area rug. A collectible rarity joining the transitional rugs in the Antique & Vintage rug collection from Rug & Kilim.About the Collection: Antique rugs have been in Josh’s resume since he began in the industry almost 40 years ago when he was already recognized for one of the largest oriental rug collections in the United States. Each piece in the internationally recognized volume was handpicked for rarity, and of course aesthetic and beauty, now complementing one of the widest varieties of the Persian rug and Turkish rug collections with the utmost attention to individuality and care. Because of Josh’s position in the wholesale rug industry he’s been responsible for promoting a number of collections throughout history, from breathtaking signature Tabriz, Sultanabad, Kerman Lavar, Agra, and Oushak classics to the more unsung jewels of the luxury industry. Vintage has also been synonymous with who we are since our beginning, particularly for our unparalleled Kilim collection, but with the rise of Mid Century collection the term vintage carpet has become very popular—especially exciting because often times many of the vintage carpets have also been treated, washed, dyed over, sheared, and modified—and has created a very successful category. We’re especially very proud of our vintage Kilims and Turkish rugs curated for our expansive collection of both area rugs and runners alike. Rug & Kilim maintains our own facilities for cleaning and restoration exclusively for carpets we’ve sold to ensure their lasting beauty and care long about a piece leaves our collection.
