Antique Tabriz Persian Floral Allover Golden Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB3824 11'0" × 14'4" $65,000

This antique Persian Tabriz rug, dating back to the early 1900s, is an exquisite example of the artistry and refinement that established Tabriz as one of the most celebrated weaving centers in Persia. Rendered in a harmonious palette of soft honeyed gold, warm beige, and accents of sky blue and teal, the rug radiates both elegance and understated grandeur.

The field is richly adorned with an all-over botanical design, where scrolling vines, stylized palmettes, and delicate floral motifs intertwine in a symmetrical yet fluid composition. The drawing is fine and precise, reflecting the remarkable skill of Tabriz weavers, while the subtly abrashed background lends the rug a natural depth and movement.

A series of narrow floral guard borders frames the central design, culminating in a wide border decorated with palmettes and blossoming motifs, all executed in the same refined hues. The contrast of the lighter borders against the deeper-toned field enhances the sense of balance and proportion.

The rug’s low, even pile and soft patina testify to its age and authenticity, while also giving it a gentle, time-worn character that only enhances its beauty. Measuring generously, this Tabriz rug is ideally suited for making a statement in a grand living room, dining area, or library, where its artistry and history can be fully appreciated.

A quintessential piece of Persian craftsmanship from the turn of the 20th century, this Tabriz is not only a decorative treasure but also a collector’s item that embodies the cultural richness and weaving heritage of Persia.
