Tabriz Persian Antique Floral Allover Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB6093 9'2" × 12'7" $43,000

Antique Persian Tabriz rug, circa 1920, presents a formal allover composition from the historic weaving city of Tabriz in Persia. Its warm taupe field is filled with a disciplined lattice of floral forms and medallion-like blossoms, softened by age into beige, tan, and cocoa tones.

The drawing combines Tabriz precision with a Kashan-like sense of refinement, as palmettes, vine scrolls, and trellis lines repeat in balanced rhythm across the surface. A generously patterned border of oval cartouches and scrolling botanicals frames the field, adding definition while preserving the rug’s calm, low-contrast character.

The result is an antique Persian floral rug with quiet architectural presence and enduring decorative ease. Its worn clarity and muted palette make it especially versatile for traditional rooms, transitional interiors, or spaces that call for pattern without visual noise. Elegant rather than ornate, it carries the patina and poise that distinguish fine Tabriz carpets.

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.
