Antique Khorassan Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB9257 14'2" × 15'10"

This antique square-format Khorassan rug was hand-knotted in Persia circa 1920 in wool. Woven in the celebrated Khorassan tradition, it balances formal composition with a softened, time-worn elegance that makes it especially appealing for refined interiors.

An airy light beige field provides the backdrop for a finely dispersed botanic pattern, where scrolling vines, petite blossoms, and floral sprays unfold with restrained symmetry. Warm taupe outlines and muted dusty blue accents keep the decoration crisp without overpowering the surface, while the gently worn finish lends the entire composition a mellow, collected character.

Multiple borders frame the rug with a composed rhythm of rosettes and meandering floral ornament, reinforcing its antique Persian identity. Its pale palette and allover drawing allow it to sit easily beneath traditional furnishings or in more contemporary rooms, where it brings texture, warmth, and understated movement.

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.
