Detailed Product Description

The prevailing blue tonality of this attractiveTabriz is unusual; it gives the piece a certain Kirman character,further compounded by the open-field medallion setting. The delicatemedallion pendants and four floral sprays extending from the medallionare evocatively contrasted with the more powerful palmette cornerdecorations, and the undulating tendril pattern of the light blueborder; the slightly lighter powder blue of the field is subtlyemphasized by this border colour. With its uncluttered central designand rich surrounding ornamentation, together with its exploration ofthe blue dye shades, this is a most decorative work, of distinctlyjewel-like appearance.
