A symphony of age-softened reds, navy, and ivory, this antique Malayer runner (3.4 × 11.9 ft) offers an enchanting path through history. At its heart lies a detailed floral lattice, formed by staggered rosettes and stylized blossoms aligned in rhythmic vertical chains — a pattern typical of village weavers from the Malayer region. Its glowing red field is gently muted by time, while deep indigo and creamy ivory accents give each floral motif a crisp definition.
The narrow format and elongated medallion repeat make it ideal for dressing a hallway, entrance corridor, or alongside a staircase. The abrash — subtle tonal shifts in the red — speaks to the organic dyes and handwoven nature of the piece, giving it a soulful, one-of-a-kind presence.
