Story Behind the Art
Named after the namesake city of its origins in Iran, Tabriz rugs have enjoyed an enduring popularity due to their exceptional quality, durability and variety of designs. Made using Turkish knot instead of the Persian knot, Tabriz rugs, exhibiting great consistency and perfect symmetrical pattern, are thinner and lighter than other Persian rugs. Color palette can vary from very bold and contrasting shades to subtle and even pastel coloring. The designs embrace a diverse range of Persian rug motifs from classic medallion to all-over patterns with palmettes integrated into the borders.
