Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Brown Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB6185 11'1" × 15'7" $65,000

This antique Persian Tabriz rug from the 1920s exudes quiet sophistication through its finely wrought design and gracefully muted palette. The field is rendered in warm beige tones, densely patterned with an allover lattice of delicate floral motifs and palmettes in soft shades of taupe, sand, and subtle brown. Hints of pale blue and muted sage are sparingly woven throughout, lending depth and a whisper of cool contrast to the otherwise warm composition.

A wide border frames the piece with a series of elegant cartouches and floral garlands, executed in the same harmonious tones as the field, ensuring visual continuity and balance. The overall effect is one of understated refinement—the intricate detail of the weave softened by time into a luminous patina.

Woven in Tabriz, one of Persia’s most celebrated weaving centers, this carpet reflects the city’s long tradition of precision and artistry. Its decorative restraint and tonal elegance make it exceptionally versatile, suited as much to a traditional interior as to a modern setting seeking a touch of historic character.
