Tabriz Persian Antique Allover Geometric Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1900 BB7282 12'4" × 16'0" $75,000

This antique Persian Tabriz carpet from circa 1900 is a striking example of refined craftsmanship and timeless design. Rendered in a nuanced and harmonious palette of earthy taupes, soft blush, warm ivory, and deep espresso, the piece radiates subtle sophistication.

The intricate allover design is anchored by a lattice of angular medallions, flanked by stylized palmettes and rosettes, which elegantly balance geometry with floral grace. Within each compartment, intricate botanical motifs—including meandering vines, floral sprays, and cypress-like forms—are executed with clarity and precision, revealing the unmistakable hand of skilled Tabriz artisans.

A wide and beautifully drawn border frames the composition with repeating cartouches and floral rosettes, echoing the central design while adding a sense of completeness and grandeur. The complex border system, with its multiple guard bands and flowing vine-scrolls, highlights the sophistication and aesthetic refinement typical of the Tabriz weaving tradition.

Woven in wool on a cotton foundation with a tight, even weave, this carpet not only boasts exceptional artistry but also enduring quality. Its muted, almost antique-washed palette makes it particularly versatile—equally at home in traditional, transitional, or contemporary interiors.

Whether used to anchor a formal living room, library, or dining space, this antique Tabriz is a masterclass in Persian textile artistry—one that speaks to over a century of beauty, elegance, and enduring appeal.
