The crown jewel of expensive Persian carpets belongs to the Clark Sickle-Leaf Carpet.
What is the most expensive Persian carpet?
The Clark Sickle-Leaf Carpet is the most expensive Persian carpet ever sold, fetching $33.7 million at a 2013 Sotheby's auction, far surpassing its $10 million estimate. Its value stems from its 17th-century rarity, unique sickle-leaf design, and historical significance, representing the legacy of Persian rug craftsmanship and artistry.
