A true tapestry of folklore and grandeur, this antique Russian runner (3.11 × 16.2 ft) exudes regal mystique with its rare and elaborate pictorial design. Rows of winged mythological beasts, birds, and heraldic floral motifs are mirrored in striking symmetry, drawing the eye down its elongated frame. The deep chocolate field acts as a dramatic backdrop to soft sand, coral, ivory, and muted teal elements that appear to rise like sculptures from the pile.
This piece is a masterwork of narrative composition — ideal for collectors and connoisseurs who appreciate antique rugs not only for their craft but for the stories they visually whisper. Perfect for a corridor, staircase landing, or gallery wall when hung vertically.
