Antique Tabriz Persian Floral Allover Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB7516 10'6" × 15'0" $80,000

An antique Persian Tabriz rug, woven circa 1900, this hand-knotted wool carpet reflects the refined workshop tradition of northwestern Persia.

Its soft beige ground is animated by an allover floral and figural repeat, with slender vines, rosettes, birds, and small animal forms worked in faded teal, dusty rose, olive, and brown. The drawing is finely articulated yet mellowed by age, so the composition reads with the softness of an old watercolor rather than a sharp graphic pattern. A structured border of scrolling botanicals and pictorial panels frames the field and gives the rug a clear architectural edge.

That balance of ornament and restraint makes the rug especially versatile in formal living rooms, libraries, or layered contemporary interiors. As an antique floral Persian Tabriz, it brings historic depth, a gentle palette, and a quietly animated surface that can anchor furniture without overwhelming the room. The result is elegant, settled, and quietly expressive.

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.
