Persian Pictorial Tabriz Carpet 11’9 x 9’4

This exquisite Persian Tabriz carpet is a striking example of the refined artistry from one of Iran’s oldest and most prestigious weaving centers. Woven in the classical tradition of the Tabriz school, it features a grand central medallion set against a vivid red field adorned with delicate floral motifs, mythical animals, and symbolic garden imagery—echoing the Persian concept of paradise.

The borders are particularly notable, showcasing intricate human figures in courtly attire, likely inspired by Safavid-era miniature painting—a period when Tabriz was a major cultural and artistic hub. These narrative scenes reflect the rich storytelling tradition woven into Persian carpets during the 16th and 17th centuries.

Hand knotted with fine wool , this piece not only serves as a decorative treasure but also as a tapestry of Persian heritage, blending elegance, symbolism, and centuries of weaving mastery.
