Tapestry

A pictorial field depicting a wooded landscape with a standing figure in a blue and white draped garment holding a spear, accompanied by a reclining hound at her feet, while a winged putto bearing a basket of flowers approaches from the right. Above, a seated figure draped in rose and cream fabric emerges from a cloud bank against a large golden disc, holding what appears to be a scepter or arrow. Dense foliage in blue-green and gold tones fills the upper field and frames the lower edge, bordered by a narrow plain dark band.

Tapestry

The field depicts a formal garden vista framed by a trellised pergola of pale ochre columns and arches entwined with dark green foliage, opening onto a fountain, terraced parterres, balustrades and a distant palace facade rendered in muted blues and creams. Large urns overflowing with white and blue flowers stand at the base of each column, echoed by clipped hedges and topiary along the lower edge. A narrow blue-ground border with a slender gold line encloses the composition on all sides.

French Tapestry

A pictorial field on a black ground depicts a nocturnal scene: an owl-like creature perched on a piano keyboard beneath a glowing tree trunk, framed by silvery, star-flecked foliage and drifting moths. To the left a cluster of patterned rooftop structures rises amid the leaves, while a small night-sky panel with a crescent moon and stars appears set into the pale tree bark at upper right. The palette is dominated by charcoal black, muted blue-grays, cream, and tan, with no border separating field from edge.

Tabriz Silk

An ivory field opens around a lobed medallion built of nested pendant forms, the innermost diamond filled with a dense floral rosette in soft rust and gold tones. Spandrel corners carry faint scrolling vine ornament that echoes the medallion's palette, and the field remains largely open and pale around these central elements. Multiple guard borders in rust, ivory and muted blue-green enclose the composition, the outermost band showing a repeating floral vine against a warm cream ground.

Tabriz

An ivory ground carries a dense scroll of curling vines, palmettes, and small florals in coral, dusty blue, and rose, anchored by a lobed navy medallion filled with layered palmette forms in salmon and pale turquoise. Ribbon-like pendants and slender floral sprays extend from the medallion toward the corners, echoed by pale corner spandrels of matching indigo. The wide coral border is set with a repeating chain of blue and cream rosettes framed by narrow guard stripes of small-scale floral trellis.

Tabriz

An ivory field is covered in a dense, regimented lattice of dark teal boteh, each filled with small floral detailing and aligned in tight vertical columns across the entire ground. The main border, a warm rust-red, carries a repeating rosette-and-vine pattern, framed by several narrower guard stripes in slate blue, cream, and rust with small geometric and floral fillers. The overall palette stays consistent between field and border, giving the whole surface a uniform, tightly repeating rhythm.

Tabriz

An overall lattice of scrolling vine work fills the pale sage-gray field, each compartment enclosing a palmette or serrated leaf rendered in rust, camel, and ivory. A wide rust-brown border of alternating rosette and lozenge cartouches frames the field, flanked by narrower guard stripes of meandering floral vine in tan and soft blue. The corners resolve the design symmetrically, with the scalloped inner guard stripe forming a continuous cusped edge along the field's perimeter.

Tabriz

The field is a soft seafoam green scattered with an all-over repeat of small vase and pomegranate forms in gold, rust, and navy, interspersed with rosettes and sprays of pale florets. A narrow rust-red guard stripe separates the field from a wide golden-yellow border filled with palmettes, floral clusters, and scrolling vinework, itself flanked by slender mint-green and ivory floral guard stripes at the outer edges. The four corners of the border show larger cartouche-like medallions in cream and pale blue that anchor the repeating pattern.

Tabriz

An ivory ground carries a large lobed rosette medallion built up in soft pink, blue-gray, and taupe petals surrounding a dense floral core, with pendant finials extending toward the top and bottom edges. Each corner holds a matching floral spandrel worked in the same muted palette, set against a field covered in fine, scrolling tracery. The border is asymmetrical in color, combining a sage-toned floral band on three sides with a mustard-yellow floral band along the lower edge, framed by narrow ivory and dark guard stripes.

Tabriz

An overall diamond lattice divides the ivory field into compartments, each filled with dense floral sprays and small rosette medallions in muted rose, sage, and soft brown tones. The trellis lines are picked out in a deeper olive-brown, giving the composition a quiet, repeating rhythm from edge to edge. A narrow multi-band border frames the field, echoing the same palette of faded rose and green against the pale ground.
