Antique North Indian Rug (Size Adjusted) BB8891 14'6" × 20'2" $120,000

This exceptional antique North Indian rug, hand-knotted circa 1900, is a timeless example of refined craftsmanship and delicate beauty. Rendered in a calming palette of faded sky blue, ivory, taupe, and soft sand tones, the piece exudes a subtle elegance that enhances its decorative versatility.

The rug features a classical Persian-inspired floral design, abundant with stylized palmettes, rosettes, and leafy vines, all gracefully interwoven across the field. The central medallion composition is understated, allowing the allover floral arrangement to speak with quiet sophistication. A wide decorative border complements the central field with matching botanical motifs and ornate cartouches, framed by narrow guard borders.

Though antique, the rug has been thoughtfully size-adjusted to suit contemporary interior layouts without compromising its visual integrity or historical character. The gentle abrash and age-softened hues further enhance the rug’s character and depth, reflecting its authentic vintage provenance.

Hand-knotted in high-quality wool, this North Indian carpet offers both durability and a luxurious feel underfoot. Perfect for formal living areas, serene bedrooms, or grand foyers, it brings a touch of regal charm and quiet opulence to any setting.

A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and 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.
