Antique Persian Tabriz rug with a Haji Jalili style was hand knotted in Iran of 100% natural wool on a cotton foundation. This rug has knots per square inch in excess of 175+. This rug is 110-140+ years old, has medium to low wool piles and is in excellent condition for its age. This rug centers on a finely articulated lobed medallion, rendered in warm terracotta, coral, indigo, and soft blue, surrounded by an expansive field of scrolling floral arabesques. The field design incorporates Tree-of-Life–inspired vegetal motifs, expressed through continuous vine scrolls, palmettes, and flowering forms that symbolize growth, renewal, and harmony. Rather than a literal trunk-and-branch depiction, these elements are integrated into a sophisticated ornamental composition, characteristic of late 19th-century Tabriz workshop production. The rug is framed by a broad floral main border flanked by multiple guard borders, all richly decorated with palmettes, rosettes, and scrolling vines. The palette has ivory, terracotta, rose, indigo, sage green, and soft charcoal colors. This is consistent with natural vegetable dyes, displaying gentle abrash (uneven fading) and a mellow, age-softened patina. No holes or repairs. This rug was acquired from an established rug merchant. Clean and ready to be enjoyed. Please see all of our rugs and other items at www.rug-auction.com. We ship too.
