Vintage Floral Ivory Beige Hand-Knotted Silk Rug BB7623 4'1" × 6'0" $17,000

This Persian Tabriz silk rug (circa 1980) exemplifies the precision and elegance for which Tabriz weavers are celebrated. Handwoven entirely of luminous silk, it showcases a dramatic double-medallion design set within a finely detailed field of repeating motifs.

The central composition features a pair of bold, octagonal medallions in deep midnight navy and brick red, enriched with intricate angular motifs and stylized palmettes. These medallions rest upon a delicate ivory-beige ground patterned with tiny diamond rosettes in shades of soft cinnamon, rust, sable, and charcoal, creating a mesmerizing lattice that radiates movement.

Surrounding the field is a sequence of richly ornamented borders. The primary border is a warm terracotta red enlivened with light sky-blue blossoms, cream vines, and accents of inky black. Narrow inner and outer guard stripes in soft gray-blue and ivory provide crisp framing and visual balance.

The all-silk foundation lends a subtle sheen that enhances the rug’s saturated colors, allowing the brick reds and deep blues to glow softly as light shifts across its surface. With its graphic geometry, refined floral ornamentation, and luxurious materials, this Tabriz rug captures the artistry and sophistication of late 20th-century Persian weaving—ideal as a statement piece in a modern or traditional setting.

This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship.
