Antique Kashan Persian Allover Floral Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1880 BB4206 12'6" × 21'6" $130,000
$130,000
This antique Persian Kashan rug, woven circa 1880, reflects the refined workshop tradition of central Persia at the height of the late Qajar period. Its formally balanced composition and softened allover repeat give it the poise associated with classic Kashan carpets, while the timeworn surface lends an easy, collected character.
A warm tan field provides the backdrop for a delicate lattice of floral medallions, palmettes, and curling vine work. Muted teal and rust accents emerge from the pattern rather than overpowering it, so the ornament reads almost like a faded textile fresco. The border remains legible, with layered guard stripes and a restrained floral main band that frames the field without interrupting its rhythm.
Because of its low-contrast palette and graceful botanical drawing, this antique Persian rug sits comfortably in traditional rooms and transitional interiors alike. It brings antique depth, architectural order, and a quietly decorative presence to formal living spaces, dining rooms, or studies.
Sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, this antique rug reflects the gallery's longstanding dedication to preserving the finest examples of carpet artistry from around the world. Its remarkable craftsmanship and patina make it both a decorative statement and a collectible work of art.
