Object Description
A wonderful antique ‘Benlian’ Tabriz carpet, in excellent pile condition and with rich natural dyes of rust reds and blues. During the beginning of the 20th century, the Benlian workshop successfully reinterpreted classic artistic rugs of the 16th/17th century Safavid period and created some of the best quality carpets for the European market. This beautiful antique Tabriz was produced in the workshop established in Tabriz by the British-Armenian firm of Benlian, whose distinctive signature is the star we can see visible in the bottom left-hand corner of the inner minor border.
