Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral In Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1900 BB6801 9'1" × 12'10" $65,000

This antique Persian Tabriz carpet, woven circa 1900, reflects the refined workshop tradition of northwestern Persia. Hand-knotted in wool, it pairs a warm tan field with a softly aged palette that has mellowed into shades of light beige, taupe, and espresso brown, giving the piece an elegant, lived-in presence.

The design is organized as a dense allover composition, with linked medallion forms, cartouche-like compartments, stylized floral sprays, and arabesque vine work unfolding across the center. Rather than relying on a single focal point, the rug creates a measured, architectural rhythm that feels both formal and decorative, while the crisp border sequence adds definition and balance.

That balance makes the carpet especially effective in interiors that call for pattern without excess. It can anchor a classic sitting room, soften a tailored study, or add depth to a transitional scheme, where its restrained contrast and antique Tabriz craftsmanship bring quiet complexity to the floor.

Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional weaving artistry.
