Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB7226 13'4" × 21'4" $130,000

This antique Persian Tabriz rug, hand-knotted in wool circa 1900, reflects the refined weaving tradition of northwestern Persia. Its design is anchored by an allover floral field rather than a single central medallion, giving the composition a calm, continuous flow that feels elegant and disciplined.

A soft beige ground provides the backdrop for a delicate trellis of blossoms, rosettes, palmettes, and vinework worked in muted dusty blue, slate blue, ivory, and charcoal. The motifs are finely drawn and softly aged, so the pattern reads with quiet clarity instead of sharp contrast. Repeated floral forms create a measured rhythm across the field, while the hierarchical border system adds structure without interrupting the rug’s airy balance.

The result is a Tabriz antique rug with formal poise and an unusually room-friendly palette. Its subdued coloration and botanical ornament suit traditional interiors beautifully, yet the restrained repeat and weathered surface also complement contemporary spaces that call for texture, history, and understated pattern.

A treasured piece from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this antique rug embodies the gallery's longstanding commitment to sourcing carpets of exceptional artistry and historical significance.
