Antique Khorassan Persian Floral Allover Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB7750 15'2" × 20'4" $105,000

This exquisite oversized Persian Khorassan rug, dating to the 1920s, is a prime example of the refined artistry and intricate craftsmanship synonymous with antique Khorassan weavings. Woven in the culturally rich region of northeastern Iran, this carpet exudes grandeur through its monumental scale and complex botanical ornamentation.

The all-over design is a masterclass in balance and symmetry, featuring a lush, continuous floral motif rendered in an understated, antique palette of faded taupe, ivory, and misty blues. Delicate scrolling vines, stylized palmettes, rosettes, and blooming shrubs form an elaborate garden-like field, while elegant weeping willow trees anchor the composition with vertical grace.

A tiered border system encloses the design in rhythmic harmony, each layer densely packed with repeating floral and vine scroll patterns that mirror and reinforce the central field’s theme. The muted tones lend the rug a dreamlike quality, softening its complexity and enhancing its versatility for both classical and modern interiors.

Crafted from high-quality wool and hand-knotted with remarkable precision, this antique Persian carpet demonstrates exceptional durability and luxurious texture. The low pile and gentle patina testify to its age and authenticity, while preserving its visual integrity and decorative power.

A true collector’s piece, this Khorassan rug not only exemplifies the legacy of Persian textile mastery but also serves as a commanding decorative element—an heirloom-quality work of art that will elevate any room with its timeless elegance and tranquil beauty.
