Antique Indian Allover Cream Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB9176 9'10" × 16'1" $90,000

This exquisite 1920s Antique Indian rug presents a dreamy composition of floating floral medallions rendered in a delicately faded palette of blush pink, celadon, pale aqua, and soft sky blue. The spacious, open field is scattered with stylized rosettes, palmettes, and botanical motifs, creating a gentle all-over pattern that feels both ornamental and effortlessly modern.

The rug’s subtle abrash and naturally softened colors lend it a luminous, watercolor-like quality, achieved through age and expert finishing. Fine curvilinear vines and decorative elements reference classical Persian and Mughal-inspired designs, while the intentionally airy layout gives the piece a refined, contemporary presence. A narrow, intricately detailed border frames the composition without overwhelming the serene field.

Handwoven in wool, this antique Indian rug offers a harmonious balance of elegance and tranquility—perfect for anchoring a light-filled living space, bedroom, or formal sitting room. Its pastel tones and timeworn patina make it especially well-suited to modern, transitional, and romantic interiors seeking a sophisticated statement piece with authentic historical character.

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.
