Tabriz Persian Antique Floral Allover Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB8587 11'2" × 16'0" $80,000

This antique Persian Tabriz rug, circa 1900, reflects the refined weaving tradition of one of Persia’s most celebrated carpet centers. Hand-knotted in wool, it pairs formal symmetry with an elegant, fully developed floral field, showing the precision and balance for which antique Tabriz carpets are prized.

A soft beige ground gives the composition a mellow, luminous quality, allowing navy blue, light blue, ivory, and warm brown details to stand out without harsh contrast. Scrolling vines, palmettes, rosettes, and small blossoms spread across the field around a subtle crest medallion, creating a layered rhythm that feels disciplined yet richly decorative.

The border system is equally deliberate: a deep navy main border filled with floral motifs is framed by narrow guards, lending the rug a crisp architectural finish. Its gently aged palette and finely drawn ornament make it especially versatile for formal interiors, transitional rooms, or collected spaces that call for an antique Persian anchor with enduring visual calm.

Sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, this antique rug represents the caliber of craftsmanship and cultural heritage the gallery has championed since its founding in 1965. With six decades of expertise, Doris Leslie Blau remains a premier destination for rare and extraordinary rugs across a wide range of styles and price points.
