Antique Kirman Persian Floral Allover Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1910 BB7216 9'7" × 15'6" $85,000

A stately early 20th-century Persian Kirman rug, hand-knotted in luminous wool and distinguished by a highly decorative and sophisticated floral design. The composition centers around an elegant medallion, rendered in soft camel, celadon, and ivory hues, with delicate scrolling vines and palmettes radiating outward in symmetrical rhythm.

The field is adorned with lush floral sprays, stylized lotus blossoms, and layered arabesques interspersed with vine-scrolls that recall the aesthetic refinement of classical Persian court carpets. The warm sand ground provides a graceful backdrop for the soft mineral tones, including faded indigo, antique gold, and muted turquoise.

A wide border frames the central field, displaying rosettes and palmettes in a continuous repeat flanked by minor floral guard bands. The drawing is crisp yet fluid, evidencing the masterful hand of Kirman’s accomplished weavers and dyers of the era.

Maintaining excellent age-related condition, this rug showcases an alluring patina and nuanced color palette that has gracefully mellowed over time. A superb example of early 20th-century Persian weaving tradition, equally suited to classic and contemporary interiors.
