Kirman Persian Antique Allover Floral Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1880 BB4128 12'4" × 18'7" $130,000

This late 19th-century Persian Kashan rug (circa 1880s) embodies the refinement and artistry of one of Persia’s most celebrated weaving centers. Its field displays a richly detailed allover botanical design, where scrolling vines, palmettes, and rosettes unfold in elegant symmetry. The palette of soft aquamarine, celadon, terracotta, and muted beige gives the rug a luminous, almost watercolor-like patina, enhanced by subtle abrash that adds depth and movement.

The composition is framed by layered borders, with the main stripe featuring stylized palmettes and floral cartouches linked by fluid vines, balanced by narrow guard stripes of delicate blossoms. Woven from finely spun wool, the pile retains a supple sheen, reflecting both the technical mastery and aesthetic sophistication of Kashan weaving during the Qajar period. This rug’s restrained yet intricate design allows it to harmonize beautifully with both traditional and modern interiors.
