Antique Kashan Persian Floral Allover Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB2998 13'0" × 21'0" $75,000

This remarkable early-20th-century Persian Kashan rug is a serene testament to classical elegance, rendered in a harmonious palette of camel-beige and soft ivory, animated by sage green, sky-blue, and pale terracotta accents. The open, airy field is elegantly structured with a refined all-over lattice of palmettes and scrolling leafy vines, imparting a graceful botanical rhythm across its surface.

A standout feature is its exceptionally detailed camel-toned border, densely adorned with floral and leaf motifs that provide both contrast and cohesion, encapsulating the field with a sense of antique grandeur. This balanced composition, coupled with Chanel-like subtle color shifts and meticulous knotting, speaks to the hallmark artistry of Kashan workshops.

Woven between 1920 and 1949, this rug embodies timeless craftsmanship—its luxurious hand-knotted wool on a fine cotton foundation ensures both durability and tactile elegance. The result is a quietly majestic foundation piece, poised to harmonize effortlessly with both traditional and contemporary interiors.
