Tabriz Persian Antique Allover Slate Gray Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB5754 7'0" × 10'3" $32,000

This early 20th-century Persian Tabriz rug embodies the quiet elegance and refined artistry for which Tabriz weaving has long been celebrated. Handwoven in the 1920s, the carpet features a soft, time-muted palette dominated by warm golden beige, sandy camel, and delicate accents of faded teal and slate blue.

The allover design consists of interconnected floral medallions and rosettes, linked by scrolling vinery and subtle geometric frameworks. Each blossom is rendered with painterly detail, yet softened by the natural wear of nearly a century, lending the piece an impressionistic quality that enhances its charm. The border frames the composition with stylized palmettes and floral cartouches, offering a gentle rhythm that contrasts with the intricate field.

True to the Tabriz tradition, the weaving demonstrates both precision and artistry, resulting in a balanced composition that feels simultaneously decorative and understated. Its restrained palette and worn patina make it especially versatile, well-suited to contemporary, transitional, or classic interiors seeking a touch of historic character without overwhelming color.

This antique Tabriz rug is not only a decorative foundation but also a collectible example of Persian craftsmanship from one of the most renowned weaving centers of the 20th century.
