Antique Sultanabad Persian Allover Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB8598 11'6" × 19'7" $43,000
$43,000
This antique Persian Sultanabad rug, woven circa 1920, is hand-knotted in wool and comes from the celebrated Sultanabad weaving tradition of western Persia. Its early 20th-century make gives it the relaxed elegance collectors value in antique Persian carpets.
The soft beige field is organized as a spacious botanical trellis, with palmettes, rosettes, and delicate vinery drifting across the surface in an airy, allover repeat. Instead of a formal medallion, the design relies on balance and movement, creating a painterly rhythm that feels open, refined, and quietly decorative. The subtle abrashed ground adds depth without interrupting the calm, architectural flow.
A narrow inner guard and a broader outer border frame the composition with scrolling floral cartouches and stylized blossoms, rendered in muted taupe, brown, navy blue, rust, olive, and faded coral. That gently weathered palette lends warmth to the rug’s antique character while preserving enough contrast for visual clarity. It is a particularly adaptable Sultanabad rug for rooms that call for softness, pattern, and historic presence.
Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug embodies the rich heritage and refined craftsmanship that define the world's most exceptional carpets. Established in 1965, Doris Leslie Blau has earned an international reputation for curating rare and important rugs spanning centuries of design history.
