Handwoven Carpet, Striped Layout, Wool on Cotton Warp, Tabriz, 250 × 340 cm Ref 10800113

This hand-knotted Tabriz rug, measuring 250 × 340 cm (8'2" × 11'2") with an area of 8.5 m² (91.49 ft²), showcases a panelled, geometric layout that unites authenticity with order, presenting the measured beauty of the East in an artistic voice. At approximately 5,100 knots/dm², the precise weave is executed with a high-quality wool pile and a sturdy warp yarn. The bandi (compartmented) layout is among the most structured design approaches in Persian carpets: the surface is divided into orderly grids, each compartment adorned with distinct yet harmonized motifs—like small windows opening onto worlds of abstract beauty. A deep blue field lends regal calm to the composition, while the cream border frames it in refined contrast, further emphasizing the geometry. This palette is a deliberate choice, aligned with the spirit of traditional Iranian architecture and ornament.
