Antique Meshad Persian Allover Floral Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB7376 9'1" × 12'8" $41,000

This antique Persian Meshad rug, circa 1920, is hand-knotted in wool and rooted in the ornamental weaving traditions of northeastern Persia.

Its design is a densely layered allover floral composition, arranged with formal symmetry that feels both orderly and richly decorative. A deep blue central field is filled with scrolling vines, palmettes, and small botanical motifs, creating a pattern that reads clearly from across the room while rewarding close inspection.

Framing the interior is a series of narrow borders and a wider floral guard with warm beige, tan, and soft blue accents. The weathered palette lends the carpet a softened, collected character, making this antique Meshad Persian rug especially well suited to dining rooms, studies, or layered living spaces that favor traditional pattern, quiet color, and a sense of age.

Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional weaving artistry.
