Notes: Finally, my own designed rug has arrived!! This Tabriz rug took quiet some time to put together on paper and it well over a year to weave. Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to design a rug and after I started my own business, I had to turn it into reality. I asked one of our family's favorite weavers if it could be done and he (Mr. Charghi) decided to work on it in his spare time. From start to finish, it took about a year to complete and the result is just amazing. From the start, I wanted to create a design that is recognized by everybody it had to have a meaning. After some time, I felt that the most recognized picture would be the world itself and so I look at how it would work in a rug. Originally, the oceans were supposed to be dark blue, but we felt that light colors would work much better and more appropriate. The light colors were chosen to give the rug a warm and welcomed look and so that it represents a blending of the different people rather than division. Another problem was the border of the Tabriz itself. Going with a traditional pattern was out of the question and just having the flags looked just as bad on paper. Someone came up with the idea of adding some life to the piece and next thing we know we had leaves in the colors of the flags hanging of branches. Then we decided to take it another step and added roses to the design of the whole rug, since they represent peace. Finally, the quality was going to be very high since it was going to be a masterpiece. A simple cotton foundation just was not going to work so we decided to go with silk and to make it not just beautiful, but also very fine. Most likely it would end up on a wall, and it had to be made accordingly. My original intention was to keep it for myself, but to be honest, seeing it completed is satisfaction enough and now that I know that it can be done, I plan to design some other rugs as well. I have seen many rugs with the typical Persian pictures, and I think it's time that we some with our own statues and monuments. These rugs take a long time to make and are extremely expensive since they have to be very accurate, but I think that anybody would appreciate rugs like this one. Take care.
