Vintage Striped Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug Persian BB8421 10'0" × 10'0" $20,000

This vintage Persian kilim rug, woven in the 1950s, brings a disciplined striped composition to the long tradition of flatwoven Iranian textiles. Its square format and restrained palette give it a versatile, architectural presence.

The design is built from four broad vertical panels, each organized by stacked horizontal bands in warm tan, light beige, taupe, cocoa, and dark brown. Instead of a central medallion or ornate border, the rug relies on subtle tonal shifts and the irregular texture of the weave to create movement. The result feels quietly graphic, with a rhythm that reads both rustic and modern.

That balance of structure and softness makes it especially effective in contemporary, minimalist, or organic interiors, where it can ground a room without overwhelming it. The wool surface adds warmth and a tactile, lived-in character that suits everyday use while preserving the refined simplicity that defines many vintage Persian kilims, and works equally well as a calm foundation in living rooms, dining spaces, or open-plan settings.

This remarkable vintage rug comes from the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, renowned for its discerning eye for quality, artistry, and timeless design. Doris Leslie Blau presents an exceptional range of vintage, antique, and contemporary rugs suited to both classic and modern interiors.
