Vintage Overdyed Persian Tabriz Wool Carpet – Beige & Blue – 330 × 235 cm
Vintage Overdyed Persian Tabriz Wool Carpet – Beige & Blue – 330 × 235 cm
A beautiful vintage handmade Persian Tabriz carpet, featuring an elegant traditional floral central medallion design and a distinctive overdyed finish in a sophisticated combination of beige, brown, blue and ivory.
Approximately 60–70 years old, this attractive carpet has been traditionally hand-knotted using very fine wool on a cotton foundation, with an estimated knot density of 100 knots per square inch (KPSI).
The overdyed finish gives the carpet a softened, aged appearance, allowing the beauty of its original Persian floral design to complement both contemporary and traditional interiors.
Measuring 330 × 235 cm (approximately 10'10" × 7'9"), this generously proportioned carpet is an excellent choice for living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and spacious reception areas.
The carpet is in good vintage condition with uneven wear and a low wool pile. It has been professionally hand-washed and cleaned and is ready for immediate use or display.
Traditional Persian Tabriz Weaving Heritage
Tabriz, in Northwest Persia, is internationally renowned as one of the great centres of traditional Persian carpet weaving.
For centuries, Tabriz weavers have been admired for their craftsmanship, detailed floral drawing, sophisticated central medallions and beautifully balanced decorative compositions.
Traditional Tabriz carpets are particularly recognised for their elegant designs, intricate patterns and carefully arranged ornamental borders.
This vintage example reflects the artistic traditions associated with Persian Tabriz weaving, while its overdyed finish gives it a contemporary decorative character.
Beautiful Central Medallion and Floral Design
The carpet features a traditional central medallion surrounded by floral decoration, creating a balanced and elegant composition.
The medallion provides a natural focal point, while the surrounding decorative motifs add detail and movement across the carpet.
The softened overdyed finish allows the original pattern to remain part of the design without appearing overly formal.
This combination makes the carpet particularly attractive for customers seeking a traditional Persian rug with a more understated, contemporary appearance.
Elegant Beige, Brown, Blue and Ivory Colours
One of the most appealing features of this carpet is its versatile colour palette.
The combination of beige, brown, blue and ivory creates a beautiful balance between warm natural tones and cooler decorative accents.
The beige and ivory shades provide a light, welcoming appearance, while the brown introduces warmth and the blue adds depth and contrast.
These colours can work particularly well alongside natural oak flooring, walnut furniture, cream upholstery, neutral linen fabrics and contemporary wooden furnishings.
The overdyed finish enhances the carpet's aged character and gives its traditional design a relaxed decorative appeal.
Very Fine Wool on Cotton Foundation
This carpet has been traditionally hand-knotted using very fine wool on a cotton foundation.
Wool is valued for its natural warmth, attractive texture and resilience, while the cotton foundation provides structural support to the woven carpet.
The original specifications indicate approximately 100 KPSI, reflecting the carpet's hand-knotted construction.
Each handmade Persian carpet has its own character, developed through the skill and experience of the weaver.
The combination of traditional materials, skilled construction and vintage character makes this Tabriz carpet an attractive furnishing piece.
Approximately 60–70 Years Old – Authentic Vintage Character
This Persian Tabriz carpet is approximately 60–70 years old, giving it genuine vintage character.
It is in good overall condition, with uneven wear and a low wool pile.
The existing wear contributes to its attractive aged and distressed appearance and should be appreciated as part of its vintage character.
The carpet has been professionally hand-washed and cleaned and is ready for immediate use or display.
It is described as suitable for heavy domestic use.
Customers looking for an authentic Persian carpet with a softened decorative appearance will particularly appreciate this piece.
