Design & History: Unique / Antique Tabriz. Knots 6 x 6 = 360 Per Sq. Size: 267 x 195 cm. The Poems of Omar Khayyam in this carpet are selective verses of three famous poems by him.

Bellow is the reference of his poems in this carpet. Drinking wine and being happy is my religion. Being free of either faith nor blasphemy is my religion.

I told the bride of life, whats your dowry. Your happiness is my dowry, she replied. Shame on the heart that knows no pain.

A heart that is not madly in love with an attractive beauty. A day spent without being in love. Is waisted, and a more worthless day cannot be imagined. Take a glass of wine that removes prejudice and discriminations. The one that eliminates the division between all nations. Do not avoid a potion that makes. A thousand problems, disappear with a drop.

Tabriz rugs are distinguished by their excellent weave and by their remarkable adherence to the classical traditions of antique Persian rug design. But they cannot be distinguished by any particular pattern or by their coloration.

The city of Tabriz, in northwest Iran / Persia, was the earliest capital of the Safavid dynasty, and it can claim to have been a center of carpet production longer than any other city in Iran. Consequently, it is not surprising that the carpets woven there have been able to preserve the highest technical standards and the most varied repertoire. Antique Tabriz rugs offer classical medallion designs and a host of allover patterns as well in every color imaginable, from brilliant rich tones to soft pastels.

What sets them apart from other Persian rugs is their quality. Tabriz is the capital of Azerbaijan, a province in the north of Iran. It has survived repeated destruction by numerous earthquakes and invasions by the Mongols, Tamerlane, Ottomans and Afghans, as well as two Russian occupations.

There is no traditional color scheme and the variety of color is limitless, ranging from rich jewel tones to subtle pastels. Tabriz rugs are precisely drawn and executed with care making them extremely popular among designers. Traditionally, Tabriz has been a city of master weavers. The ateliers in this influential carpet-weaving city established a strong reputation for classicism and quality that is still respected today.
