Persian Portrait Rug
This Persian portrait rug is an extraordinary example of artistry and craftsmanship. Handmade in Tabriz, one of Iran’s most celebrated weaving centers, it reflects the mastery and precision of Persian weavers. The design is by Mahmoud Farshchian, the world-renowned painter from Isfahan, whose poetic and imaginative art continues to influence Persian visual culture.
The rug portrays a serene woman reclining gracefully beneath a swirling blue sky, her white gown and burgundy shawl flowing with movement and elegance. The vivid blues and soft whites create a celestial atmosphere, while the detailed floral accents add depth and texture. The image captures Farshchian’s signature balance between spirituality, nature, and dreamlike beauty.
Expertly woven from fine wool on a silk foundation, this rug showcases the technical excellence of Tabriz craftsmanship. The silk base enhances color clarity and gives the rug a luminous sheen, while the tightly woven wool pile adds texture and dimension. Every curve, shade, and contour is executed with painterly precision, making this rug a living work of art.
More than a floor covering, this Persian portrait rug is a magnificent textile that celebrates the union of painting and weaving. It stands as a tribute to Persian culture, artistry, and imagination — a luxury rug perfect for wall hanging in elegant interiors or fine art collections. The rug size is 4.10 x 3.2.
