Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB7573 10'10" × 17'1" $95,000

Woven in Persia circa 1920, this antique Tabriz hand-knotted wool rug reflects the refined weaving tradition of northwestern Iran. The composition favors elegance over drama, with a soft beige field that allows the intricate drawing to breathe. Its restrained tone and precise structure make it a persuasive choice for interiors that call for historic character without visual heaviness.

The field unfolds in an allover trellis of scrolling vines, rosettes, palmettes, and petite floral sprays, punctuated by subtle medallion and crest-like forms. Instead of a single focal point, the design creates a measured rhythm across the surface, giving the rug a formal presence that still feels light and open. Fine linework and low-contrast color keep the pattern legible yet gentle.

A layered blue border frames the field with floral cartouches and stylized palmettes, adding definition to the composition. Powder blue, taupe, and light gray accents are softened by age, lending the piece a gracefully timeworn patina. It is well suited to a living room, library, or dining room where an antique Persian rug can anchor the scheme with quiet sophistication.

A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau collection, this antique rug exemplifies superior artistry, historic character, and timeless sophistication. DLB is internationally recognized for offering exceptional antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs of remarkable quality and provenance.
