Vintage Striped Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet Persian BB8691 11'0" × 13'8" $24,000

Handwoven in the 1960s, this vintage Persian Kilim rug exemplifies the quiet elegance and utilitarian beauty characteristic of tribal weaving from mid-20th-century Iran. Constructed entirely from undyed, handspun wool, the rug showcases a natural gradation of soft beige, cream, sand, and warm brown hues arranged in broad horizontal bands. These tonal shifts are a direct result of the wool’s organic pigmentation and the artisan’s intentional use of alternating weft threads, creating a harmonious rhythm across the surface.

The rug’s flat-woven structure provides a tactile, textured look that balances simplicity with rustic refinement. Unlike pile rugs, Kilims are thinner and more flexible, making this piece highly versatile—perfect for layering in contemporary, bohemian, or Scandinavian-inspired interiors.

Visible in the close-up images are the minute irregularities and slubs inherent in handmade textiles, attesting to its authenticity and the skill of the weavers. The overall effect is understated yet deeply rooted in cultural heritage, blending traditional craftsmanship with a timeless, minimalist aesthetic.

Whether placed in a modern loft or a more classic setting, this Persian Kilim brings warmth, natural texture, and a sense of earthy sophistication to any interior.

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.
