Antique Tabriz Persian Floral Allover Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1880 BB7527 10'4" × 14'5" $60,000
$60,000
Distinguished by its quietly commanding elegance, this 19th-century Persian Tabriz carpet embodies the architectural precision and refined artistry for which Tabriz weaving is celebrated. Woven circa 1880, the rug features an all-over herati-inspired floral lattice—a composition of stylized rosettes, palmettes, and vinery rendered in a subtle palette of muted taupe, soft umber, and aged ivory.
The visual rhythm is at once structured and organic, with a central axis giving way to gently mirrored floral motifs. Though devoid of a formal central medallion, the layout maintains symmetry and intentionality. Multiple narrow guard borders frame the primary field, culminating in a wide main border anchored by an elongated palmette and boteh motif—a classic hallmark of northwest Persian design.
Woven with exceptional finesse, the rug boasts a finely knotted pile of lustrous wool, hand-dyed with natural pigments now mellowed with time. This patina of age imbues the piece with an understated grandeur—ideal for interiors that appreciate quiet sophistication over ostentation.
Whether as a grounding element for a formal room or an anchor for a more relaxed, layered aesthetic, this antique Tabriz exemplifies enduring craftsmanship and timeless Persian design.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
