Antique Tabriz Olive Wood Carpet

The Persian Tabriz, a Louis De Poortere signature piece, reinterpreted in soft olive green with tone-on-tone layers.

The Persian Tabriz has been one of Louis De Poortere's classics for decades. In this version, the pattern is designed in tone-on-tone layers, making it calmer and more modern than the original.

Is the rug washable and suitable for outdoor use?

The rug can be machine-washed at 30 °C, and the colors will remain vibrant for a long time. Small sizes fit into a home washing machine; for large rugs, it is best to use a large-capacity machine. It works just as well in the living room as it does on a terrace, balcony, or in a conservatory and is suitable for underfloor heating. The backing has a non-slip coating. In high-traffic areas, we recommend an additional anti-slip underlay.

How thick is the rug?

It is only 3 mm thick. The rug is flat-woven like a kilim and has no pile. This allows it to lie flush under doors and furniture, collect less dust, and be folded for transport or storage. If you are looking for a thick, soft high-pile rug, this is not the one for you. In return, you get a clean, low-maintenance surface.

What is the rug made of?

The rug is made of a single material: polyester, 70% of which is recycled PET (rPET). The recycled content is increasing every year (20% in 2023, 40% in 2025, 70% in 2026), with the goal being 100%. Because no material mix is used, the rug can be fully recycled at the end of its life. Louis De Poortere developed and patented the weaving technique in its own development department in Mouscron.

What happens to the rug when it has reached the end of its life?

Once the rug has reached the end of its life, you scan the QR code on the back, and Louis De Poortere will pick it up free of charge. Rugs in good condition are resold, and all others are processed into new polyester yarn.

Who manufactures the rug?

Louis De Poortere is a fourth-generation Belgian family business that has been weaving rugs since 1929. Every rug is created in their own production facility in Belgium.
