Kirman Persian Antique Allover Floral Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 (Size Adjusted) BB7590 10'9" Ã— 11'4" $48,000

This antique Persian Kirman rug, woven circa 1920, is a square, size-adjusted example of the region’s celebrated floral weaving tradition. Hand-knotted in wool, it reflects the elegant discipline for which Kirman carpets are admired, combining formal symmetry with a softly aged antique patina.

A light beige field carries a finely drawn allover composition of scrolling vines, palmettes, blossoms, and mirrored medallion forms. The design feels architectural yet gentle, with rust outlines and warm taupe details enlivened by quiet teal accents that appear throughout the field and layered borders. Repeated floral rosettes and cartouche-like motifs frame the center without overpowering it, allowing the ornament to breathe.

Its restrained palette and dense floral movement make it especially suited to traditional rooms, polished transitional interiors, or layered contemporary schemes that call for warmth rather than contrast. The balanced drawing and nuanced wear give the rug a collected presence, offering the decorative depth of an antique Persian carpet with a calm, adaptable surface.

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.
