Antique Kirman Persian Allover Floral Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1900 BB7565 11'0" × 19'0" $120,000
$120,000
This antique Persian Kirman (Kerman) carpet, woven around 1900, reflects the region’s celebrated floral tradition in a hand-knotted wool format. Its composition balances a deep teal ground with a warm tan border, creating the poised contrast that has long distinguished desirable Kirman antiques.
The field unfolds as an allover garden of scrolling vines, rosettes, palmettes, and flowering stems, arranged around a subtle medallion-crest rather than a rigid focal point. Soft beige, muted gold, celadon, and pale blue accents temper the darker ground, lending the surface a layered, luminous character and an easy sense of movement.
A substantial border frames the design with lotus-like blossoms and vine scrolls, while narrow guard bands add rhythm and definition. Formal yet fluid, this antique Persian floral rug brings depth, structure, and decorative richness to a salon, dining room, or library, where its balanced palette and courtly drawing can anchor the room with quiet authority.
Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional weaving artistry.
