Description from the seller
Antique Persian Tabriz-Style Hunting Medallion Carpet
A large hand-knotted wool carpet featuring a finely rendered pictorial "hunting design" — a curvilinear central medallion with pendants, surrounded by a dense floral field populated with mirrored pairs of lions, deer, and birds. The design is characteristic of the Persian hunting-carpet tradition historically associated with Tabriz workshop production. Multiple guard borders frame the field, including narrow cartouche-style bands with stylized floral and calligraphic-adjacent motifs.
Dimensions: 357 × 255 cm
Condition: good overall condition with age-appropriate wear. No repairs so far
Materials: Wool pile on cotton foundation
Age: Believed to be an antique piece; family history estimates it at around 200 years old (was installed in the house in 1925 but it came in the family before that). Though this has not been independently verified by a specialist. Wear patterns and construction are consistent with a genuinely old, hand-knotted piece rather than a modern reproduction.
Notes: The knot density and weave quality suggest solid workshop-level production (300+ KPSI). Given the size, design complexity, and apparent age, this piece would benefit from expert evaluation to confirm precise origin and dating — offered here for a knowledgeable buyer or collector to assess.
