A 19th-century Persian Sultanabad carpet from around 1880, measuring approximately 274.5 × 365.9 cm (about 9'6" × 12'0") — a comfortable room-size proportion that fits easily under a standard dining table or anchors a generous living-room seating area. The rug pairs a classic rust-toned field with a sky-blue border, the kind of warm-on-cool color contrast that is one of the defining marks of decorative Sultanabad weaving. Sultanabad carpets from the 1880s are now well over 140 years old; pieces in this condition and size remain one of the most enduringly popular formats of antique Persian decorative carpet, prized for the way their muted hand-dyed color saturations age into rooms over decades. Hand-knotted wool. Authentic one-of-a-kind antique.
