Vintage Striped White Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Persian BB8145 5'0" × 6'2" $6,000

Woven in Persia circa 1955, this vintage kilim rug reflects the quiet practicality of mid-century tribal weaving. Handwoven in wool, it presents a clean flatweave structure that feels both grounded and refined, making it an easy fit for collectors drawn to authentic vintage rugs with a restrained, architectural presence.

Instead of a central medallion or border, the design is built from horizontal stripes that move across the white field in varying widths and densities. Deep navy and softer blue bands create a measured rhythm, while the slightly uneven handwork and subtle tonal shifts lend the surface a tactile, artisanal quality. The result is graphic, but never rigid.

This striped Persian rug brings a calm, tailored look to contemporary interiors, softening hardwood floors and balancing upholstered pieces, modern art, or rustic wood finishes. Its abstract pattern and cool palette give it the versatility to read as casual, tribal, and distinctly current at once. Part of the broader tradition of vintage wool kilims, it offers character without visual excess.

Part of the Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage piece reflects the gallery's unwavering dedication to quality, authenticity, and design heritage. Founded in 1965, Doris Leslie Blau remains one of the world's most trusted sources for exceptional rugs, from rare mid-century finds to contemporary masterworks.
