Persian Antique Allover Floral Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB5189 5'7" × 14'2" $27,000

This exquisite antique Persian Bidjar rug, woven circa 1900, is a remarkable example of masterful Persian craftsmanship and timeless botanical artistry. Hand-knotted with the legendary Bidjar technique—known for its dense, durable weave—this rug showcases both resilience and refined aesthetics, making it a treasured heirloom piece.

The field is adorned with an intricate, lattice-like floral medallion pattern, composed of stylized palmettes, blooming rosettes, and delicate leafy vines. A symphony of soft ochre, muted turquoise, warm chocolate brown, and hints of dusty blue create a gentle yet vibrant interplay of colors. The intricate central motifs are framed by a richly detailed border featuring scrolling vines and flower heads, adding depth and definition to the overall design.

What sets this Bidjar apart is the clarity and balance of its composition—a hallmark of the finest Persian village weaving traditions. The rug’s wool pile retains a beautiful sheen and texture, a testament to both the high-quality materials and the artistry of its maker.

Ideal for traditional or transitional interiors, this antique rug brings a sense of heritage, harmony, and sophistication to any space. It is more than a floor covering—it’s a piece of history that continues to captivate with its botanical elegance and enduring charm.
