Colors
in Tabriz rug are both in harmony with each other and with
customer's taste.
Entrance
of chemical dyes to Iran and their production, caused less
usage of natural dyes, which is more observed in Tabriz
carpet.
Natural
dyes, used from old times in Tabriz, are madder (red),
cochineal (red and fire red) and weld (yellow).
Combination of yellow and indigo produces grass-green,
olive-green colors.
Mouse-gray or black earth, which
locally is called "qara torpakh", is taken from
the mines of “Mishehbar” in Arasbaran.
There
is a great color variety in Tabriz rugs, especially in pictorial
rugs.
