About the Item
Oversized Antique Persian Kirman Rug
Size: 16'7" × 25'8" (505 × 782 cm)
This majestic oversized antique Persian Kirman rug, dating back to the 1880s, exemplifies the exceptional artistry of the Kirman weaving tradition. Woven in fine wool, the carpet features a deeply intricate botanical field composed of flowering vines, palmettes, and lotus blossoms, all rendered in delicately faded earth tones—soft beiges, pale browns, and muted navy—against a warm tan background.
The all-over design is executed with tremendous attention to symmetry and rhythm, forming a sophisticated tapestry of natural motifs. Subtle abrashed areas and time-worn patina further accentuate the rug’s authenticity and antique charm, while the layered floral border frames the field with a refined elegance.
Measuring an impressive 16'7" × 25'8", this rug was likely custom-woven for a grand estate or palace setting, offering not only aesthetic grandeur but also cultural richness. Its timeless palette and graceful floral patterns make it an exquisite choice for both traditional and modern interiors seeking a statement of classic Persian craftsmanship.
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.

Vintage Persian Kirman Rug 5'1 x 8'10
Located in New York, NY
Vintage Persian Kirman rug. Size: 5'1 x 8'10. This attractive and tonally muted Kirman from southeast Persia was woven when densely covered grounds were particularly popular. The field color is a soft light teal with accents of dark brown, old gold, ivory and light green. The main border is equally filled with flowering vines and other elements repeating those of the field. Almost randomly, motives outlined in dark brown seem to drift in and out of focus. The all-over pattern has rosettes, leaves and layers of vines. The color variation or abrash is fairly subtle and is not the usual horizontal band variety, all too obvious in carpets with diverse dye lots. The soft, almost feminine palette makes this rug ideal for a boudoir, dressing room or bed chamber...
