Khorassan Persian Antique Allover Cream Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB7277 10'0" × 13'7" $22,000

This antique Persian Khorassan rug, hand-knotted circa 1900, reflects the region’s refined weaving tradition in wool from Iran. Its muted beige field is softly aged, allowing the allover composition to read with antique clarity rather than dense contrast. Its softened beige ground and low-contrast drawing create a mellow surface that still retains intricate detail.

A delicate trellis of scrolling vines, palmettes, and botanical sprays unfolds across the surface, gathering into a subtle crest at the center. Dusty blue and deep navy outline the floral network, while light brown and gray accents add depth to the otherwise restrained palette. The design feels formal yet fluid, with graceful symmetry and a calm, collected rhythm.

A strong navy border frames the composition with rosettes and leafy meanders, giving the rug architectural definition. Well suited to traditional, transitional, or layered interiors, this antique Khorassan carpet offers the quiet presence of a collector’s piece and the versatility of a neutral ground for rooms that call for elegance without visual weight.

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.
