Persian Tabriz Rug with Allover Floral Design in Blue and Terracotta BB7489 9'2" × 13'7" $43,000

An exquisite 1880s Persian Tabriz rug, this piece showcases the masterful artistry and refined elegance for which Tabriz weavings are renowned. The rug features a rich allover design of blossoming floral motifs and interconnected botanical forms, unfolding in a rhythmic lattice across the field.

The color palette is exceptionally harmonious: a deep denim blue ground provides a striking backdrop for the warm terracotta and apricot tones of the floral tracery. Accents of light celadon green and soft beige lend balance and delicacy, while subtle details in chocolate brown add depth and dimension to the composition.

The border frames the field with sweeping cartouches and stylized palmettes, rendered in dusty coral and muted teal, completing the sense of balance and grandeur. Woven with fine wool, the rug’s luminous patina reflects both its age and quality, enhancing its character with a soft, time-worn elegance.

A true collectible, this antique Tabriz rug embodies the sophistication of late 19th-century Persian craftsmanship, making it an ideal choice for connoisseurs seeking both artistry and timeless beauty.

This rug from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection is not only a collectible statement of refined taste and exceptional craftsmanship—it is also a rare survival of the modernist movement as interpreted through Persian textile tradition. 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.
