$13,120. An ivory field densely worked with floral vine surrounds a finely drawn medallion in soft rose and grey, the palette carried outward into a wide rose border and matching corner spandrels. Tabriz stands at the head of the Persian weaving tradition, the city where the Safavid court first established organised workshops and where the medallion-and-spandrel format was codified into the arrangement still followed five centuries later. The silk content declares itself in the highlights, which take on a distinct sheen when viewed at an angle, a property of the fibre rather than any applied finish. Well proportioned for a seating area or a generous entry hall. Design pattern: Central medallion with allover floral field, Tabriz. Size: 5'0" x 7'1". Gallery Collection.
