With its beautifully worn patina and muted blue-green palette, this antique Malayer runner (3.7 × 11.9 ft) tells its story through subtlety. The field is adorned with delicate floral motifs and soft latticework, framed by a detailed border with repeated rosettes and vine scrolls. Decades of gentle fading have created a watercolor effect, giving the rug an ethereal, almost ghostlike charm that only time can bestow.
Woven in the Persian Malayer region, this runner is a testament to village craftsmanship — each imperfection a mark of the human hand. The elongated proportions and subdued tones make it an ideal candidate for grounding a long hallway or entryway in a home that embraces quiet sophistication.
