Tabriz Persian Antique Allover Floral Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB7271 10'2" × 14'6" $53,000

This elegant antique Tabriz rug from the early 20th century exemplifies the refined artistry for which the Tabriz weaving tradition is renowned. Hand-knotted in Persia around 1900, the carpet showcases a sophisticated allover design, executed in a harmonious palette of earthy browns, creams, and soft beige tones that lend a warm, aged patina.

The field is richly ornamented with an intricate pattern of palmettes, floral motifs, and stylized leaves arranged within a diamond lattice framework. This design radiates symmetry and precision, revealing the weaver’s exceptional skill and attention to detail. The motif spacing allows the natural abrashed wool to show through beautifully, enhancing the piece’s sense of depth and texture.

Surrounding the central field is a wide border filled with classic Persian floral elements, including large rosettes and entwining vines, flanked by multiple narrow guard bands that repeat delicate floral and geometric forms. These borders provide a striking frame that balances the complexity of the field with structured refinement.

Woven with fine wool on a cotton foundation, the rug retains much of its original character, with a muted color palette that softens with age—perfect for both traditional and transitional interiors. Despite its vintage, this piece maintains its integrity and charm, offering not only decorative beauty but also historic and collectible value.

This Persian Tabriz rug is a timeless example of craftsmanship, designed to complement sophisticated spaces with understated elegance.
