Ornamental Elegance — Antique Malayer Runner from Persia (3.5 × 10 ft)
This antique Malayer runner from Persia (3.5 × 10 ft) embodies the sophistication of finely detailed village weaving. The rug features a cascading lattice of palmettes, stylized blossoms, and vine-scrolls in soft brick, peach, and camel tones — all set against a rich navy field. Each element is symmetrically mirrored along the central axis, giving the composition a rhythmic, architectural grace.
Framed by a golden camel border filled with angular boteh motifs and framed animal heads, the piece has a regal presence. Its elongated form and delicate articulation make it especially well-suited for hallways, stair landings, or as a luxurious grounding element in transitional spaces.
Despite its age, the rug retains excellent clarity in design and a supple wool texture, signaling the enduring quality of its hand-knotted construction.
