Antique Persian Tabriz Rug with Allover Floral Design in Gold and Blue, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1920 – A warm golden ground and a striking blue border give this antique Persian Tabriz rug an inviting, colorful presence. Woven circa 1920, its allover floral design combines freely branching vines with an engaging variety of palmettes, rosettes and stylized leaves.
Across the field, slender blue, rust, and ivory stems connect blossoms in coral, brick red, sage green and deep navy. Larger flowers alternate with delicate sprigs, creating a composition that feels abundant yet clearly drawn. Subtle variations in the motifs reward closer attention, while the continuous pattern maintains a pleasing balance across the rug.
The broad blue border is particularly expressive. Large coral and ivory palmettes alternate with flowering branches, linked by sweeping vines in rust and muted green. Narrow red floral bands frame the field and outer edge, bringing warmth and definition to the cooler blue surround. This interplay of botanical detail and orderly composition makes the piece an appealing example of antique Tabriz rugs.
Measuring 9 feet 3 inches by 12 feet 1 inch, the rug is well proportioned for a living room, dining room, or spacious bedroom. Its allover design is perfect for incorporating furniture, while the gold field complements natural wood, cream upholstery, and leather. Blue and coral accents offer a rich starting point for coordinating fabrics and accessories.
For collectors and decorators exploring antique Persian rugs, this Tabriz offers warmth, expressive floral drawing, and a distinctive border. It is a versatile selection from Nazmiyal’s antique rug collection, suited to both traditional rooms and contemporary interiors.
