Antique Tabriz Persian Floral Allover Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1880 BB7115 10'8" × 19'2" $75,000

Woven in Tabriz, Persia, around 1880, this antique hand-knotted wool carpet reflects the refined Persian weaving tradition of the late 19th century. Its formal allover layout gives the piece a composed, architectural presence that feels both historic and enduring.

A deep navy field is threaded with a repeating trellis of vine scrolls, palmettes, and small blossoms, creating a garden-like surface without a central medallion. Larger boteh-like leaves and floral sprays punctuate the rhythm, giving the pattern movement and clarity. The drawing is disciplined yet supple, a hallmark of fine Tabriz work.

A broad light beige border frames the carpet with trailing rosettes, blossoms, and graceful foliage, softening the intensity of the ground and reinforcing the overall balance. Warm tan, faded celadon, and dusty blue accents lend gentle contrast, while the wool pile adds a soft hand and mellow patina. It is especially well suited to formal seating rooms, libraries, or layered contemporary interiors.

Sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, this antique rug represents the caliber of craftsmanship and cultural heritage the gallery has championed since its founding in 1965.
