Tabriz Persian Antique Floral Allover Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB7490 8'9" × 12'3" $65,000

Woven in Persia around 1900, this hand-knotted Tabriz rug is a fine antique wool carpet from one of the region’s most esteemed weaving centers. Its allover floral layout reflects the disciplined elegance associated with classic Tabriz design, with no central medallion to interrupt the continuous rhythm of the pattern.

The dark teal field creates a rich backdrop for scrolling botanicals, trellis details, and repeated blossom forms worked in light beige, warm tan, and soft taupe. The contrast is restrained rather than sharp, giving the surface a mellow, time-softened character while still preserving the clarity of the design. Small-scale floral figures keep the composition active across the entire field.

A broad border system frames the carpet with layered ornament and carefully spaced floral motifs, reinforcing its formal balance. The result is an antique Persian rug that feels composed and versatile, well suited to traditional interiors, transitional rooms, or a collected setting where pattern, patina, and subtle color depth can do the work.

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.
