About Tabriz Tabriz is the capital of Azerbaijan, in north-west Persia. Since the seventeenth century it has been one of the foremost carpet-producing towns in the country. Even today its weavers are reputedly among the most skilled, and work with great speed suing a special knotting hook. Tabriz weavers favor the central medallion design with repeat corner decorations, thought to be inspired by hand-tooled book covers. These rugs are richly ornamented with elegant arabesques and intertwining flowers across the entire field. Backgrounds are usually red, blue or ivory, patterned with a variety of subtle shades. Tabriz is also famous for its pictorial rugs. The four seasons design is popular, as are pictures of mosques and places. However, the most frequent designs portray Perisa's four greatest poets - Firdausi, Hafiz, Saadi and Omar Khayam. Tabriz Rugs are extremely hard-wearing. Warp and weft threads are of cotton. Rugs are woven with either the Persian or Turkish knot, although more usually the latter. Tabriz has exported rugs for many years, and as a result they are produced in a great range of sizes and shapes.
