304x411 cm

Tabriz is without a doubt one of the most famous weaving centres in the world and has a long and rich cultural heritage of carpet making that dates back as far as the 15th century. The city is located in the North Western part of modern day Iran and has gained an impressive reputation as one of the world's biggest carpet exporters. The region has played a vital role in the development of artistic expression in carpets and features a wide and diverse array of different designs. Revival of the declining carpet industry in the 19th century is largely due to the merchants and weavers of Tabriz. It was during the Safavid Dynasty (1499-1722) that the finest of Persian carpets were produced and during the mid 19th century Tabriz weavers once more took up the making of these exceptionally beautiful carpets. Weavers from Tabriz were amongst the first to introduce curvilinear designs, a pattern that requires utmost precision and demands a higher knot density due to it's finesse.
