An antique Tabriz Haji Jalili palace carpet, North West Persia. An oversize carpet in classical shield shaped medallion design. C. 1900. 728×450 cm. The city of Tarbiz, in the North West of Iran, experienced an artistic reclamation for rug making after three Persian rug weaver/designers Kurban Dai, Sheik Safi, and most notably, the celebrity Hadji Jallili—were responsible for the revival of a truly memorable Persian carpet production in the 19th century. Master weaver Haji Jalili started to hand craft some masterpieces and became the most notable and important creator of unique Court design carpets. Haji Jalili, is known for his unique approach to rug-making with his distinctive choices of colour pallets – lighter colours such as pink, greys and gold and design elements; cypress trees, weeping willows, deer, peacocks and gazelle. His other trademark was that he used subdued backgrounds of ivory, wheat, sand, terra cotta, pale rust and browns. And for some added contrast he would use midnight indigo. He also used a high knotted density on the rugs.
