TABRIZ is the capital of Eastern-Azerbaijan
province and one of the most important rug weaving centers of Iran.
Tabriz rugs have the most diverse designs in Iran. Typical is the
medallion and corners with endless repeats of curvilinear rosettes and
palmettos. Paneled garden, pictorial, scenery, animal, all-over and
geometric designs are also woven. Dark reds and powerful blues
predominate with ivory used as a contrast. Both the Turkish symmetrical
and Persian asymmetrical knot is used.
