Antique Kirman Persian Floral Allover Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB8792 7'9" × 7'7" $26,000

Antique Persian Kirman rug, circa 1900, hand-knotted in wool in the celebrated Kirman weaving tradition. This square format carries the refined, decorative language for which antique Kirman carpets are prized, with a clearly articulated border and a softly worn ground that speaks to age.

Set against a warm tan field, the design unfolds in an orderly allover composition of floral and foliate motifs, arranged in arch-like compartments that give the rug a measured, architectural rhythm. Delicate blossoms, vine scrolls, and crest-like forms repeat across the surface, while the border layers burgundy, navy blue, soft pink, and beige into a frame of uncommon depth. The pattern feels formal yet restrained, allowing the ornament to breathe rather than crowd the field.

Its faded clarity and muted palette create an antique character that is elegant without feeling heavy. That balance makes it especially versatile for interiors seeking a collected, traditional foundation with warmth and softness. As a hand-knotted wool Persian rug, it offers both visual richness and enduring craftsmanship.

A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau collection, this antique rug exemplifies superior artistry, historic character, and timeless sophistication. DLB is internationally recognized for offering exceptional antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs of remarkable quality and provenance.
