Antique Tabriz Persian Floral Allover Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1880 BB6703 12'8" × 18'10" $120,000

Hand-knotted in Persia circa 1880, this antique Tabriz Persian rug is woven in wool and reflects the refined workshop tradition for which the city’s carpets are known. Its soft beige field sets a calm stage for an organized allover composition, letting the design read with clarity and restraint.

Across the surface, slender vines, rosettes, palmettes, and floral sprays interlace in a trellis-like rhythm, with small medallion and crest forms lending structure. Navy blue, slate blue, olive, and muted gray accents sharpen the pattern while preserving its gently time-softened character. The result is formal, but airy and approachable.

A layered border system frames the field with scrolling blossoms and vine work, reinforcing the rug’s symmetry and giving it a composed presence in traditional, transitional, or layered interiors. Elegant without excess, this antique Persian Tabriz floral carpet brings historic polish and decorative clarity to both classic and contemporary settings.

Sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, this antique rug reflects the gallery's longstanding dedication to preserving the finest examples of carpet artistry from around the world. Its remarkable craftsmanship and patina make it both a decorative statement and a collectible work of art.
