Oversized Kirman Persian Antique Allover Sand Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB9092 17'0" × 24'0" $180,000

This early 20th-century Persian Kirman rug exemplifies the refined artistry and delicate palette for which Kirman weavings are renowned. Hand-knotted in Iran around the 1900s, the rug features an all-over floral lattice punctuated by ornate medallion motifs, rendered in softly faded tones of sand, taupe, ivory, and subtle celadon blue.

The composition is framed by a series of intricately drawn borders adorned with scrolling vines, palmettes, and floral rosettes, creating a harmonious balance between structure and fluidity. The gentle abrash and naturally softened patina lend the rug a luminous, time-worn elegance, enhancing its antique character without diminishing the clarity of its design.

Woven with exceptional craftsmanship and a finely detailed hand, this Persian Kirman rug offers a quiet sophistication that works beautifully in both classic and contemporary interiors, serving as a timeless foundation with depth, history, and understated luxury.

This rug from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection is not only a collectible statement of refined taste and exceptional craftsmanship—it is also a rare survival of the modernist movement as interpreted through Persian textile tradition. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
