About the Item

Antique Persian Sultanabad Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 12'2" × 15'8" (370 × 477 cm) This antique Persian Sultanabad rug, measuring approximately 16 by 12 feet, presents a sumptuous, painterly field of muted steel blue-green hue, enlivened by an all-over pattern of stylized floral and botanical motifs. Oversized palmettes, rosettes, and lotus blossoms in warm accents of dusty rose, mellow terracotta, and muted olive are interspersed with delicate sky-blue and navy highlights, each element connected by a network of scrolling vines and tendrils rendered in ivory and pale taupe. The rug’s broad main border features a procession of large, serrated cartouches—each enclosing a central floral spray in cream and blue—set against a grounded field of red. Narrower guard borders on either side repeat smaller vine-and-leaf motifs in complementary hues of cream, blue, and terracotta, providing a crisp frame for the central design. Subtle abrash in the hand-spun wool pile creates gentle variations in the steel blue-green background, lending the piece an authentic, softly aged patina. With its harmonious blend of cool neutrals, serene blues, and warm highlights, finely knotted construction, and gracefully flowing botanical design, this Sultanabad rug brings refined elegance and tranquil sophistication to a grand living room, formal dining hall, or stately library. This rug is part of the esteemed Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
