Large Hadji Jalili Tabriz Carpet, circa 1890

Large Hadji Jalili Tabriz Carpet, circa 1890.

6.40 x 4.42 m.

Antique Tabriz carpets are distinguished by their fine weaves and remarkable adherence to the traditions of Classical Persian rug design. This elegant c. 1890s example is associated with the Master weaver, Hadji Jalili, well known as the artist behind some of the most exquisite and highly sought-after pieces of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many of which can be spotted in grand historic homes across the UK and Europe.

This carpet features a charming, earthy colour palette, with tones of muted pink, ivory, olive green, and sky blue, all in vegetable dyes that have taken on a fine patina with age, lending the work a sense of understated grace.

Retained in very good condition for everyday use - still retaining its borders on all sides, remarkable for a carpet over 130 years old.

A refined example, with the versatility to suit a variety of settings - rare in this large format.
