Tabriz Persian Antique Floral Allover Ivory Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1880 BB5073 4'10" × 6'7" $27,000

This hand-knotted Persian Tabriz carpet, woven circa 1880, reflects the refined weaving tradition of northwestern Persia.

Its ivory-beige field is laid out in a compact trellis, where scrolling foliate sprays, small blossoms, and curving palmettes repeat with measured rhythm. Brick red, terracotta, navy blue, and sage accents animate the surface without disturbing its calm, formal balance, giving the antique rug a quietly layered presence.

A carefully framed border system reinforces the composition with additional floral detail and rich tonal contrast, lending the piece an architectural clarity that feels collected rather than ornate. In wool, this antique Tabriz rug pairs historic Persian craftsmanship with an allover design that reads beautifully beneath furnishings and in rooms shaped by clean-lined decor. Its restrained palette and continuous pattern make it especially versatile for dining rooms, libraries, or living spaces that benefit from texture and subtle color.

Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional weaving artistry.
