Oversized Antique Sultanabad Allover Floral Cream Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 (Size Adjusted) BB9183 15'0" × 23'7" $225,000
$225,000
This antique Sultanabad rug, woven in Persia around 1900, is a hand-knotted wool carpet from the celebrated northwestern weaving tradition.
Its cream-beige field is intentionally open, allowing the fine allover botanical drawing to breathe. A softened central crest emerges only subtly, while scrolling vines, palmettes, rosettes, and foliate sprays drift across the surface in dusty blue, faded rose, taupe, and soft brown. The effect is painterly rather than formal, with generous spacing that keeps the composition light.
A coral-rose border frames the interior with greater saturation, carrying larger floral forms and a lively sequence of guard borders in blue and pink. That contrast between airy center and ornamented edge is classic Sultanabad design, and it gives the rug an easy versatility for layered, collected rooms. The mellow palette and antique patina make it especially suitable for interiors that call for warmth, movement, and a quietly decorative Persian accent.
A treasured piece from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this antique rug embodies the gallery's longstanding commitment to sourcing carpets of exceptional artistry and historical significance. DLB offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs, welcoming collectors and designers at every level.
