Timeless Charm — Antique Malayer Runner from persian (3.3 × 10.2 ft)

This antique Malayer runner from persian (3.3 × 10.2 ft) reflects the quiet elegance and fine craftsmanship of village weaving from the late 19th to early 20th century. The rug features a classic Herati motif—diamond rosettes flanked by stylized fish—repeating in a dense, all-over pattern across a rust-red ground. The scale and regularity of the motifs give it a refined rhythm, with subtle color variation adding depth and age-earned character.

Its crisp ivory border, with a repeating rosette and stepped-leaf design, offers striking contrast and frames the composition with clarity. Slim guard borders and a rich rust-toned outer edge further accentuate the structure of the piece.

This runner’s proportions are ideal for hallways, entryways, or alongside a bed. Its naturally aged abrash, soft patina, and even wear make it both decorative and durable—an enduring example of Malayer’s nuanced artistry.
