8x11 Antique Tabriz Rug

This antique Tabriz is the embodiment of elegance, exceptional craftsmanship and endurance. When first found, this rug was missing a very large portion at its corner and edge. The restoration process took months and quite a few skillful artisans. The meticulous repairs perfectly match the original pattern and colors and are nearly impossible to spot. In addition to its remarkable come back, this Tabriz boasts a gorgeous all-over Herati pattern with a very ornate border. Warm accents of cream and nutmeg are positioned in the main field of deep seafoam blue. The field color also transitions into light blue in one section due to an abrash variation in the wool (read more about abrash in our Q&A section). A truly captivating piece with a story to admire and marvel over with your guests. Low wool pile on a very dense cotton foundation.
