(Connoisseur-Caliber) The city of Tabriz in northwest Persia has an illustrious history of carpet weaving dating back to the late 16th century, a pedigree that shows in the distinctive antique weavings that survive to this day. This stunning 150-year-old carpet signed by the acclaimed workshop, "Hadji Baba Gendjeh" features an astonishingly intricate allover pattern of idealistic swirling vinery laden with realistic blossoms of varying scales juxtaposed in a melodious splendor. The diversity of species represented here is staggering. This magical gardenscape continues into the border where the most exquisite renditions of irises can be found tilting at slight angles among a fantasia parade of botanical delights. Ravishing, naturally wrought jewel-toned colors sparkle with unrestrained magnificence, shading the subtle nuances of every leaf and polychrome bloom. This distinguished, extremely finely crafted Persian Dorasht carpet is an exemplary choice for a room with a formal decor that demands an equally eloquent floor covering for harmonious effect. Its very good pile and tight knotting ensure much durability for even a heavily trafficked space.
