Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB7635 9'7" × 11'3" $43,000

This antique Persian Tabriz rug, woven circa 1920 in one of Iran’s most celebrated weaving centers, is hand-knotted in wool and grounded in a quiet, enduring sense of formality. It belongs to the long Tabriz tradition, where precise drawing and balanced ornament often take precedence over a single dominant centerpiece.

The soft beige field is arranged in a disciplined allover repeat of paisley botehs and small floral rosettes, linked by delicate vinework that creates a trellis-like rhythm across the surface. Muted slate blue, brown, taupe, and ivory give the pattern depth without sharpening its outline, allowing the design to read as refined and atmospheric rather than bright or crowded.

A structured border in deeper blue frames the composition with floral medallions and meandering details, reinforcing the rug’s formal Persian character. With its low-contrast palette and orderly repeat, this antique Tabriz works especially well beneath seating arrangements, where it adds texture, heritage, and a calm decorative cadence.

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. With six decades of expertise, Doris Leslie Blau remains a premier destination for rare and extraordinary rugs across a wide range of styles and price points.
