Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1930 BB8244 10'3" × 13'0" $53,000

This antique Persian Tabriz rug, woven circa 1930, reflects the refined city-weaving tradition of northwestern Persia. Hand-knotted in wool, it presents the measured elegance that made Tabriz carpets prized for their clarity of drawing and balanced compositions, with a softly aged surface that enhances its quiet character.

A soft beige field is overlaid with a delicate allover trellis of scrolling vines, rosettes, blossoms, and boteh-like motifs. The repeat is evenly distributed, so the design feels airy rather than crowded, with small medallion and crest forms punctuating the floral rhythm in muted dusty blue, blush, ivory, and burgundy.

The border architecture is equally disciplined: a blue floral main border frames the field, while narrow guard bands sharpen the edges and preserve the rug’s calm, time-softened palette. Its restrained ornament and gentle patina make it an easy fit for classic interiors, but also for transitional rooms that benefit from a Persian antique rug with quiet color, formal structure, and an understated sense of age.

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.
