Vintage Striped Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet Persian BB8151 9'0" × 10'0" $16,000

This vintage Persian Kilim rug, handwoven in 1956, is a striking example of minimalist elegance and understated craftsmanship. Woven in the traditional flat-weave Kilim technique, the rug showcases a soothing palette of warm, earthy neutrals punctuated by subtle, alternating stripes in beige, ivory, soft taupe, and muted plum.

The linear composition features irregular horizontal bands, varying slightly in thickness and spacing, which lend the piece a rhythmic visual texture and organic character. The natural wool fibers exhibit a soft, lustrous patina that enhances its artisanal appeal while attesting to the quality and age of the weave. The gently timeworn surface adds a sense of quiet authenticity and warmth, making it an ideal foundation for modern, Scandinavian, or rustic interiors.

Despite its simplicity, the rug’s composition reflects a masterful balance between structure and spontaneity. The gentle imperfections in the stripe pattern, characteristic of hand-loomed Kilims, evoke the soul of traditional Persian nomadic artistry while remaining highly versatile for contemporary design schemes.

With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
