Antique Tabriz Floral Allover Teal Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB9251 11'9" × 15'1"

This antique Persian Tabriz rug reflects the refined weaving tradition of Tabriz, Persia, in a hand-knotted floral format. Its deep teal field is filled with scrolling vines and an animated array of blossom motifs, palmettes, and rosettes rendered in beige, rose, tan, soft blue, and navy.

Rather than relying on a single central medallion, the composition unfolds as an ordered allover garden, creating movement across the field while preserving a formal balance. A burgundy border, packed with small floral ornament, frames the design with warmth and gives the rug a clear architectural edge. The contrast between the saturated ground and pale motifs adds clarity and depth.

Known for their disciplined drawing and courtly elegance, Tabriz carpets have long been admired for exactly this kind of intricate floral workmanship. Antique and versatile, this example brings a rich, collected presence to traditional interiors and offers enough tonal complexity to ground transitional spaces with ease.

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.
