An early 20th-century Persian Sultanabad carpet, woven around 1900 and measuring approximately 305.1 × 396.2 cm (about 10’0″ × 13’0″). The composition centers on a colorful geometric design over an ivory ground, framed by a blue border — a softer, lighter palette than the deeper-red Sultanabads of the same period and a forgiving choice for rooms anchored by neutral or natural-toned furniture.
Sultanabad was a major hand-knotting center in west-central Persia in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, producing decorative wool carpets in formats and color palettes specifically suited to Western interiors. Carpets of this size, age, and color profile are particularly versatile for living and dining rooms.
