Antique Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile 1880s Allover Floral Wool Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional Persian piece exemplifies the robust weaving traditions of the late 19th century. The design features a densely packed allover pattern of stylized palmettes and rosettes, characteristic of the Sultanabad region's grand aesthetic. The masterful use of natural dyes creates a rich and complex palette. A deep, saturated indigo field provides a striking backdrop for the terra cotta main border. The interplay of these hues, accented by softer sky blues and subtle blush tones, defines this piece among premium blue color rugs. Woven from high-quality hand-spun wool, the pile retains a luxurious texture and depth of color that only improves with age.
