Antique Indian Allover Floral Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Runner – Circa 1900 BB4109 2'6" × 16'0" $13,000
$13,000
This antique Indian runner, circa 1900, reflects the refined weaving traditions of northern India in a long, gallery-ready format. Its timeworn surface and classical layout suggest a piece made for elegant interiors, where pattern and proportion matter as much as ornament.
The warm tan field is organized around a pale central spine, flanked by repeated medallion-cartouches and floral motifs that create a measured, rhythmic procession down the length of the rug. A narrow border frames the composition, while the softened outlines and gently worn surface lend the design a quiet, lived-in character. Subtle teal and soft beige accents keep the palette grounded yet dimensional.
With its hand-knotted wool construction and muted botanical vocabulary, the runner brings historic warmth to corridors, galleries, and elongated rooms. It reads as traditional without feeling formal, offering designers and collectors a versatile antique Indian rug with depth, texture, and quiet sophistication.
Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional weaving artistry. Renowned for its curated selection of the world's finest rugs, DLB offers pieces ranging from accessible vintage treasures to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces for discerning collectors and designers alike.
