Tabriz Persian Antique Allover Geometric Cream Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB7158 8'8" × 11'7" $42,000

This exquisite antique Persian Tabriz rug from the early 20th century is a stellar example of the artistry and craftsmanship for which Tabriz weavers are renowned. Woven circa 1900, it showcases a bold and distinctive geometric medallion design set against a softly aged camel-beige and denim blue field.

At the heart of the composition lies a large, symmetrical central medallion with a palmette-like blossom radiating elegantly, surrounded by an angular arabesque frame. The intricate detailing of stylized leaves and rosettes forms an elaborate latticework that radiates outward across the field in an allover arrangement. These angular floral motifs are emblematic of Tabriz’s unique blend of traditional Persian design and regional innovation.

The border complements the central field with a series of decorative guard bands and a main border filled with serrated leaves and classic Persian rosettes. Subtle abrashed blues, faded browns, and soft ivory tones offer a beautifully timeworn patina that enhances its antique charm.

The rug is hand-knotted in wool on a cotton foundation, showcasing a tight weave and excellent craftsmanship typical of Tabriz weaving from the era. It is both decorative and collectible—ideal for traditional and transitional interiors alike.
