ABOUT PRODUCTID 10780
The Tetex rug from the 1960s is an example of European craftsmanship interpreting Persian artistic tradition. Handcrafted from high-quality, lustrous wool, it features a composition inspired by classic Heriz and Tabriz motifs—its central field adorned with stylized floral and palmette elements in light blue, turquoise, yellow, cream, and accents of olive green, all framed by a broad golden-yellow border with subtle geometric decoration in blue and cream. The dominant brick-red ground enhances the depth of color, while the symmetrical pattern creates a sense of order and cohesion. The pile is dense, soft, and displays a subtle sheen, lending the surface a distinguished, tactile quality. Edges are neatly finished with short, well-preserved fringes. The rug measures 85 by 197 cm and is in good condition—minor signs of use appropriate to its age, with vivid colors and a crisp pattern. This rug tells the story of postwar Europe's fascination with the Orient in the 1960s—a period when German producers like Tetex sought to recreate the exotic designs of Persia and the Caucasus. Each shifting ray of light highlights the wool’s sheen, evoking interiors where tradition met mid-century modern sensibilities. Its palette and rhythm of geometric ornament allude to a longing for distant lands and the pursuit of beauty in everyday surroundings.
