Tabriz Persian Antique Medallion Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB7879 11'2" × 14'7" $80,000

This exquisite Antique Persian Tabriz Rug, dating back to the 1900s, embodies the elegance and refinement of one of Persia’s most celebrated weaving centers. Handwoven in Tabriz, a city renowned for its artistry and technical mastery, this piece is a testament to the region’s centuries-long tradition of producing rugs of unparalleled beauty and sophistication.

At the heart of the composition lies a delicate central medallion radiating outward with a near-palatial sense of symmetry. The medallion and surrounding field are rendered in a soft palette of sand, ivory, and muted blush, enriched by accents of deep indigo and subtle celadon, creating a design that feels both harmonious and ethereal.

The expansive field features finely drawn floral arabesques and scrolling vinery, executed with meticulous precision, giving the rug an airy yet intricate character. Stylized blossoms and delicate leaves unfurl gracefully across the surface, offering a sense of organic movement that contrasts beautifully with the strict geometry of the medallion.

The borders frame the field with striking depth, highlighted by an inky navy ground decorated with ornate rosettes, palmettes, and continuous floral motifs. This dramatic framing enhances the luminosity of the softer central palette, creating an elegant balance between lightness and contrast.

Woven from the finest wool, the rug possesses a luxurious sheen and exceptional durability, hallmarks of Tabriz craftsmanship. Its refined weave and highly detailed patterning reflect the influence of classical Persian court carpets, designed to convey both prestige and timeless beauty.

Perfectly suited for a grand interior or sophisticated collection, this 1900’s Antique Persian Tabriz Rug is more than a decorative piece—it is a work of art that bridges history, culture, and enduring craftsmanship.
