Antique Tabriz Allover Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB9254 11'1" × 17'0"

This antique Persian Tabriz rug reflects the refined weaving tradition of northwestern Persia, rendered in a softly aged palette of classic taupe, light beige, and subtle rose-beige notes. Its antique character is evident in the gentle fading and even, time-softened surface.

The composition is arranged like a formal garden, with a disciplined grid of framed compartments filled with stylized flowering trees, leafy branches, and trellis-like motifs. A narrow vertical axis runs through the center, adding structure to the allover design while preserving the graceful, botanical rhythm that defines classic Tabriz rugs. The result is decorative yet composed, with enough detail to reward close viewing.

A restrained border of scrolling floral ornament and scalloped forms encloses the field, giving the piece a balanced finish. The muted coloration and elegant patterning make this antique wool rug particularly suited to interiors that favor quiet sophistication, where historic Persian design can bring warmth, texture, and a sense of cultivated calm.
