About the Item
73021 Late 19th Century Antique-Worn Persian Sultanabad Rug 11'00 x 15’00. Woven by the hands of master artisans over a century ago, this hand knotted wool antique Persian Sultanabad rug stands as a poetic relic of time, where artistry and heritage intertwine in a symphony of earthy hues and timeless elegance. A faded patina graces its surface, whispering stories of bygone eras, a testament to its enduring beauty and craftsmanship. The distressed aesthetic reveals layers of history, where each softened motif and time-worn detail evokes the grandeur of Persian weaving traditions, reimagined for the modern rustic home.
At its heart, an all-over botanical tableau unfolds—a mesmerizing dance of palmettes, rosettes, leafy tendrils, and stylized florals, their softened outlines lending an ethereal grace to the weathered field. The design, once bolder, has now mellowed into a delicate striation of muted earth tones, where faded browns, soft taupes, and antique beige hues blend seamlessly, creating a painterly effect reminiscent of nature’s quiet, organic beauty. The classical Herati border, with its rhythmic palmettes and lanceolate leaves, frames this work of woven art, while subtle guard bands adorned with floral meanders complete the composition with understated refinement.
Aged to perfection, this distressed antique Sultanabad rug is more than a floor covering—it is a bridge between the past and present, an heirloom steeped in history yet effortlessly suited for contemporary interiors. Whether anchoring a rustic chateau, modern industrial living space or complementing the warmth of an Adirondack-inspired retreat, this exquisite piece carries the essence of Persian artistry, inviting its owner to walk upon the echoes of a bygone era while embracing the serene elegance of modern-day living.
Rendered in muted hues and variegated shades of camel, tan, sand, ecru, coffee, brown, russet, taupe, almond, brick red, and terra cotta with other accent colors.
