Vintage Striped Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug Persian BB8150 8'0" × 9'6" $17,000

A striking example of mid-century tribal design, this 1955 Persian Kilim rug exudes understated elegance with its minimalist aesthetic and refined execution. Woven by hand from high-quality wool, the flat-weave textile captures the essence of vintage utility with a distinctly modern sensibility.

The rug features a clean and rhythmic pattern of narrow black stripes set against a warm, natural beige field. These handwoven lines run vertically, introducing a subtle sense of structure and balance while preserving the organic charm of its traditional Persian roots. The irregular spacing and gentle waviness of the lines hint at its artisanal origin, celebrating the imperfections of hand craftsmanship.

Notably versatile, the rug’s muted palette and linear composition make it an ideal fit for both contemporary and rustic interiors. Whether used in a minimalist loft or a layered, bohemian living space, its natural tones and linear symmetry add quiet sophistication.

Its wool foundation ensures durability and tactile richness, while the flat-woven structure keeps the piece lightweight and low-profile—perfect for high-traffic areas or layered styling with other rugs.

This vintage Kilim is more than a decorative floor covering—it’s a functional piece of textile art rooted in Persian heritage and perfectly attuned to modern design tastes.

A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
