Description
Step into timeless elegance with this magnificent antique Sultanabad rug, a true masterpiece of 19th-century Persian weaving. Featuring a serene light beige background, this rug is a stunning example of refined simplicity, allowing its large-scale, open-field design to shine in all its graceful grandeur.
Unlike overly busy patterns, this Sultanabad embraces open space—creating a calm, inviting presence that enhances both traditional and modern interiors. The expansive field highlights the exquisite floral motifs and stylized palmettes that bloom across its surface, rendered in soft earth tones, warm rusts, and cool blues that harmonize beautifully with the ivory backdrop.
What sets this piece apart is the scale and balance of its design. The oversized elements are not only visually striking but also rare among Persian rugs, reflecting the influence of Western taste during the height of Sultanabad’s artistic revival in the late 1800s. These weavings were sought after by European aristocrats and interior designers alike for their decorative versatility and unparalleled craftsmanship.
Hand-knotted with high-quality wool and dyed with natural pigments, the rug has aged gracefully—its colors have mellowed into a warm patina, and its pile remains soft and resilient underfoot. Whether placed in a grand living room, a formal dining space, or a luxurious bedroom, this antique Sultanabad rug brings history, beauty, and soul into any home.
A timeless investment and a statement of understated luxury, this is more than a rug—it is a piece of art woven with tradition and elegance. Don’t miss the opportunity to own a rare treasure from one of Persia’s most celebrated weaving regions.
