"This Persian rug's Gombad design is specific for Tabriz town, one of the oldest centers of Persian carpets in the world. The multitude of colors that makes up the picture is full of symbols and features a pleasant combination. The field contains a perfectly symmetric mosque dome interior image. Appearing many times in this picture, the pitcher is a symbol of purification. Of course this is primarily for the purification of mind considering the purpose of the represented location. Pomegranate flowers, lotus, iris and Peony flowers appear as symbols of fertility, rebirth, power and religious freedom. 1680"

Tabriz Rugs
The rugs manufactured in the city of Tabriz also are of great finesse. Their predominant colors are red, blue and ivory. They offer strong contrasts in the rug’s image but also inspire serenity and beauty. Most are hand-knotted on a soft cotton foundation using a combination of wool and silk. Some of them show the common floral designed central medallion. Featuring different sizes and a perfect symmetry these rugs prove the skills of those who worked to manufacture them.
