Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB6222 11'2" × 19'3" $100,000

Antique Persian Tabriz rug, circa 1920, woven in the Tabriz tradition of northwestern Persia, offers a formal allover floral design with age-softened elegance.

The warm tan field is finely patterned with small floral sprays, scrolling vine work, palmettes, and rosettes, organized in a disciplined trellis-like rhythm. A subtle medallion axis runs through the composition, lending balance without interrupting the generous repeat. The result is decorative yet measured, with the worn clarity of an early 20th-century Persian carpet that has developed a graceful, collected patina over time.

Indigo, teal, and ivory accents sharpen the drawing and give the rug its visual depth, while the layered border structure frames the field with quiet authority. This antique Tabriz carries the refinement for which Persian workshop weaving is known, making it well suited to interiors that call for warmth, history, and a restrained botanical presence.

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.
