Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB8585 11'10" × 16'4" $53,000

This antique Persian Tabriz carpet, woven around 1900, reflects the refined court-weaving tradition of northwestern Persia. Hand-knotted in wool, it presents an elegant allover floral composition that balances the formal discipline of Tabriz design with a softer, more lyrical decorative hand.

A soft beige field carries mirrored vines, blossoms, palmettes, and crest-like medallions arranged with measured symmetry. Powder blue, rust, terracotta, ivory, and slate gray accents give the drawing depth without overwhelming the light ground, while the faintly painterly details keep the surface airy and graceful. The result is a rug that feels intricate yet never crowded.

Encircling the field, a layered border system in blue and red reinforces the composition and adds architectural structure. Its finely worked ornament and gentle patina make it especially suited to traditional rooms, transitional interiors, or any setting that calls for an antique Persian rug with quiet authority and lasting visual warmth.

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.
