Made with hand-knotted wool and originating circa 1970-1980, this 3x16 vintage Persian Tabriz runner represents a truly distinguished addition to Rug & Kilim's vintage collection—an exemplar of the legendary Tabriz weaving tradition. The design features a very subtle, luminous all-over repeat motif framed by a delicate border in a high-key palette of ivory and palest beige. On the Design: This long runner is a rare and striking study in tonal refinement and textural luxury. Its structure is defined by an expansive central field where a very faint, all-over repeating pattern of small, geometric-floral motifs is subtly ghosted across the surface. The architecture intentionally foregrounds the luminosity of the aged wool: the vast field is dominated by luminous creamy ivory and subtle pale beige, creating an uninterrupted, airy plane. The delicate repeat pattern is framed by a simple, elegant border, which is finely traced in whispers of pale taupe and ghosted gray. This intentional subtlety in both color and pattern highlights the craftsmanship while ensuring the piece retains a serene, modern versatility. Admirers of the craft will appreciate the precision and fine knotting of Tabriz provenance, expertly used here to achieve a rare, high-key aesthetic where texture and light are the primary design elements. This piece is a sophisticated fusion of ancient discipline and profound serenity. Condition: This vintage rug prevails in good condition, with an antique wash that creates the look of a distressed classic in a low-pile construction; ready for the floor.
