Antique Kirman Persian Allover Floral Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet BB5223 13'3" × 24'4" $105,000

This exceptional Persian Kirman rug from the early 20th century (circa 1920) exemplifies the refined artistry and elegant symmetry associated with the best examples of Kirman weaving. Woven in soft, muted earth tones and cool blues, the palette is both calming and sophisticated, offering timeless versatility for a range of interior settings.

The rug features a gracefully composed central medallion radiating outward with stylized floral motifs, leaf scrolls, and delicate tendrils arranged with mirror-like balance. The expansive field is filled with a dense allover floral lattice that references traditional garden themes, yet with a distinctly airy and ethereal touch due to the subtle tonal variations.

Framing the central field is a series of intricately rendered borders, including a main border with alternating floral sprays and palmettes connected by fine vinery, all enclosed by delicate guard bands. The interplay of soft beige, sand, taupe, slate blue, and celadon green reinforces the understated elegance of the composition.

The rug has been gently aged, with a beautifully faded patina that lends it an antique character without sacrificing the clarity of its intricate detailing. Its low pile and fine weave make it an excellent choice for both display and practical use in sophisticated environments such as salons, dining areas, or grand foyers.

Whether integrated into a classical setting or used as a counterpoint in a modern interior, this antique Persian Kirman offers a rare blend of artistry, craftsmanship, and timeless beauty.
