This is an early 20th-century Persian Tabriz carpet, finely woven and showcasing an elegant interpretation of the Shah Abbas design tradition. The field is richly decorated with a complex lattice of floral palmettes, rosettes, and scrolling vinework, executed with impressive precision typical of distinguished Tabriz workshops.

 

A particularly notable and unusual feature of this carpet is the inclusion of beautifully rendered butterfly motifs, integrated throughout the design. These elements add a sense of movement and liveliness, giving the composition a distinctive artistic character not commonly seen in standard Shah Abbas arrangements.

 

The palette is harmonious and vibrant, combining deep indigo blues, warm reds, golds, and soft ivory, all of which highlight the detailed workmanship. The surrounding border — filled with floral medallions and flowing vines — frames the central field perfectly, reinforcing its symmetry and visual impact.

 

Overall, this piece is an exceptional decorative and collectible Tabriz carpet, distinguished by its refined execution, classical Shah Abbas structure, and the rare inclusion of butterfly motifs, making it both aesthetically striking and culturally appealing.
