About the Item

This exceptional 1880s Persian Sultanabad rug presents a rich, time-softened palette and an intricate allover botanical design emblematic of the finest late 19th-century Sultanabad weavings. The expansive deep blue field is densely filled with stylized floral rosettes, palmettes, and scrolling vine motifs, rendered in warm terracotta, soft camel, pale celadon, and gentle ivory tones. The harmonious contrast between the saturated blue ground and the earthy, sun-faded accents creates a beautifully balanced and highly decorative composition. Framed by multiple borders, including a wide terracotta main border adorned with floral medallions and angular vine scrolls, the rug exhibits the strong graphic presence and architectural scale for which Sultanabad carpets are renowned. The natural abrash and subtle wear across the surface lend depth and character, enhancing the rug's antique patina and authenticity. Handwoven in Persia during the late 19th century, this Sultanabad rug embodies both durability and refined artistry. Its generous scale and timeless botanical pattern make it a distinguished statement piece for grand living spaces, dining rooms, or libraries, seamlessly complementing both traditional and contemporary interiors. This rug from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection is not only a collectible statement of refined taste and exceptional craftsmanship-it is also a rare survival of the modernist movement as interpreted through Persian textile tradition. 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.
