About the Item

This early-20th-century Persian Tabriz carpet radiates refinement, combining a soft, harmonious palette with both bold and elegant design elements. Measuring around 8′10″ × 11′1″, this piece offers generous scale without overwhelming intimacy. The field is grounded in a light brown-gold / beige earth tone that has beautifully aged, with slight abrash giving the surface liveliness and depth. Across this warm foundation lies a repeating array of arabesque floral motifs: palmettes, vine scrolls, and leaf symbols in slightly darker tones that contrast just enough to define each form without creating harsh edges. Encircling the field is a guard border and wider florid main border featuring interlocking floral patterns and palmette motifs. The outer border bookends, with thinner palmette and floral guard bands, provide structure and complete the composition in a balanced frame. Overall, the rug strikes a beautiful balance between warmth and formality. The light brown-gold tones give warmth and subtle glow; the darker floral symbols introduce visual interest; and the skilled weaving preserves clarity while allowing for a soft, antique patina. It's a piece that would work beautifully in a variety of settings-whether as a focal point under a dining table or to anchor a cozy seating area. 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.
