This antique Malayer runner (3.2 × 15.2 ft) boasts a visually captivating composition of interlocking geometric forms, hand-knotted in deep indigo and rust hues with accents of ivory, green, and orange. The field is densely packed with stylized diamond motifs and symbolic floral clusters arranged in rhythmic repetition, creating both harmony and movement across the elongated surface.
The rug’s well-aged palette and subtle abrash suggest decades of natural wear, while the ornate guard borders provide a stately frame of rosettes and angular vine scrolls. Woven in the late 19th to early 20th century, this piece exemplifies the finesse of tribal Persian craftsmanship — ideal for long hallways or grand entry galleries seeking warmth, pattern, and authenticity.
