Persian Tabriz 

Stock No: PE-142-001441

Size(m): 1.27×0.87

This extraordinary pictorial rug, measuring 1.27 by 0.87 meters, captivates with its depiction of the historical figure Artemisia of Caria, a queen and military commander allied with the Persian army during the Greco-Persian Wars. 

The historical figure in this rug is likely to be Artemisia I of Caria. She was a queen and military commander who served as an ally of the Persian Empire under Xerxes I during the Greco-Persian Wars, which included the famous Battle of Salamis in 480 BCE.

Artemisia I is renowned for her strategic prowess and leadership during the naval engagements. While she wasn't a Persian herself, her contributions as an ally to the Persian forces earned her historical significance. The stylized portrayal includes wings attached to her figure, emphasizing her exceptional status.

The addition of wings to the depiction of a historical figure like Artemisia I is likely a stylistic choice rather than an accurate representation. In historical and artistic contexts, wings are often symbolic and may represent various ideas, such as divinity, transcendence, or a heroic or mythic quality.

It's more plausible that the wings are included in the artistic representation to convey a symbolic or metaphorical meaning, possibly emphasizing her exceptional and elevated status as a military commander or a powerful figure.

When interpreting stylized elements in art, it's essential to consider the artistic license taken by the creator and the symbolic intent behind such embellishments. While wings may not align with the historical accuracy of Artemisia I, they can convey a unique artistic expression within the context of the Persian carpet's design.

Artemisia stands proudly, holding a spear or flagpole in her right hand, dressed in a beautiful orange gown. In her left hand, she carries a mysterious artifact, perhaps a small dagger. The scene is adorned with stylized white flowers in the mid-area, symbolizing beauty and transience.

The carpet's aesthetic is enhanced by a sense of tranquility, acknowledging life's fleeting nature. Columns, both solid and broken, symbolize the passage of time and the impermanence of existence. 

This rug, with its rich symbolism and historical narrative, would adorn any setting, providing joy and pleasure to its owner while preserving a connection to a remarkable historical figure for generations to come. 

Purchase it today with complete confidence, knowing you possess a unique piece of art with a story that transcends time.

 

When choosing a rug for your living room, less is not more. Smaller rugs can make a space look smaller or cluttered in comparison to larger rugs which give the illusion of a more spacious room.
For a classic living layout, place the rug in the centre of the room and place the front legs of your sofa and armchairs on the rug. This will help create a better aesthetic and cleaner appearance.
A rug in the bedroom is all about a warm and comfortable underfoot, especially for those with hard flooring! For those wanting a larger rug for the room, we recommend a rectangular rug that sits right under the lower end of the bed and extends at least 50cm beyond the sides of the bed (depending on the size of your bedroom).
For those who don’t want a large rug but still want a warm underfoot when getting out of bed, we recommend a round or runner rug to place at either side of the bed.
Scale and proportion is key when placing a rug in your dining room. As a rule, you want your rug to be large enough to accommodate all the dining chairs, even when they are pulled out from the table. We recommend your rug be large enough to extend around 60-70cm beyond your table.
For high traffic, spill-risk areas like the dining area, we recommend a low-pile rug and easy-to-clean material like polypropylene for a rug.
