Antique Tabriz Persian Floral Allover Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1930 BB8234 8'3" × 12'8" $48,000

Hand-knotted in Persia around 1930, this antique Tabriz carpet reflects the refined floral weaving tradition of northwestern Iran in a room-size format.

Its warm tan field is densely layered with an allover trellis of scrolling vines, rosettes, palmettes, and graceful medallion-like crests. Rather than relying on a single center, the composition unfolds in balanced repeats, creating a sense of movement and continuity across the surface. Small blossoms and curling stems lend the design a painterly intricacy, while the restrained ground keeps the pattern readable and elegant.

A formal border system frames the interior with precision, using deeper brick red, teal, gold, and soft blue accents to sharpen the composition. Woven in wool with the fine detail associated with Tabriz workshops, this antique Persian rug offers a cultivated look that works beautifully in traditional, transitional, or layered contemporary interiors. Its subtle patina softens the palette and gives the carpet an inviting, collectible presence without losing clarity over time and natural warmth.

Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional weaving artistry.
