CLICK TO ENLARGE


"The design of this Persian rug is called Gombad and it represents the image of a mosque interior. The colors are very rich and we can say that the color combination is unique. There isn't only one background color , the field contains several different colors areas. The central image shows the dome of a mosque on the inside and provedes the idea of height, the idea of heaven proximity, the fullness of the sky when it is full of stars. Note that the inner and outer borders have an ivory background covered with floral motifs. The main border is black, featuring a somehow induced sobriety."

Tabriz Rugs
The rugs manufactured in the city of Tabriz also are of great finesse. Their predominant colors are red, blue and ivory. They offer strong contrasts in the rug’s image but also inspire serenity and beauty. Most are hand-knotted on a soft cotton foundation using a combination of wool and silk. Some of them show the common floral designed central medallion. Featuring different sizes and a perfect symmetry these rugs prove the skills of those who worked to manufacture them.
