About the Item

Oversized Antique Persian Khorassan Rug Size: 14'10" × 19'10" (452 × 604 cm) An exquisite example of Persian textile artistry, this oversized antique Khorassan rug from the late 19th century showcases the grandeur and subtlety for which the weavings of northeastern Iran are so revered. Woven around 1880, the rug features a majestic botanical design, rendered in an elegant, muted palette of beige, ivory, taupe, and soft cocoa brown. The all-over field is dominated by a rhythmic pattern of floral palmettes and delicate arabesques, arranged in a structured yet flowing lattice. Each quadrant of the rug displays a masterful symmetry anchored by a bold, stylized floral medallion, softened by wisps of scrolling vinery and floral sprays that blossom organically across the surface. Surrounding the central field is a complex border system, comprised of a broad primary border adorned with expressive floral motifs, flanked by multiple minor guards bearing intricate meandering vines and floral rosettes. The nuanced interplay of warm earth tones with the rug’s sophisticated design lends it a serene presence, ideal for anchoring expansive interiors with understated luxury. Hand-knotted with high-quality wool, the rug not only exhibits the finesse of Khorassan craftsmanship but also offers exceptional durability. Its soft patina and worn aesthetic speak to its age and authenticity, adding depth and character to the textile. This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. 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.
