Antique Tabriz Persian Floral Allover Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB2554 11'7" × 17'9" $105,000

An antique Persian Tabriz rug, hand-knotted in wool circa 1900, this formal floral carpet reflects one of northwestern Persia’s most refined weaving traditions. Its layout favors an allover composition rather than a central medallion, giving the piece a calm, evenly balanced presence.

The warm tan field is scattered with delicate scrolling vines, small palmettes, and blossom sprays arranged in a loose trellis repeat. The design feels airy and disciplined at once, with each floral cluster given room to breathe across the surface. Muted light blue, rust, and dark brown accents provide subtle contrast against the grounded background.

A coordinating floral border frames the rug with curled vinework and stylized blooms, echoing the field without overwhelming it. The result is an antique Persian rug with quiet sophistication, especially well suited to formal living rooms, libraries, and contemporary interiors seeking an elegant layer of pattern and 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.
