Antique Khorassan Persian Floral Allover Cream Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB6710 13'10" × 20'4" $130,000

This antique Persian Khorassan carpet, woven circa 1900, reflects the refined floral tradition of northeastern Persia in a hand-knotted wool format. Its softly muted beige field gives the rug an airy, time-softened presence that feels composed and adaptable in formal or transitional interiors.

Rather than relying on a single dramatic medallion, the design unfolds in an allover botanical lattice. Delicate vase forms, trailing vines, palmettes, and small blossoms repeat across the surface with measured symmetry, while subtle crest-like arrangements lend the composition a quiet Kashan influence and a sense of balanced movement.

A sequence of narrow guards and a broader outer border completes the frame, carrying scrolling florals in dusty blue, light brown, gray, and tan against a softened blue ground. The low-contrast palette and gently worn patina temper the detail, allowing this antique floral rug to read with collected restraint in a dining room, library, or seating area.

A treasured piece from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this antique rug embodies the gallery's longstanding commitment to sourcing carpets of exceptional artistry and historical significance. DLB offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs, welcoming collectors and designers at every level.
