Woven circa the 1920s, this antique North-West Persian runner measures 3’3″ x 12’2″ and is a striking testament to the region’s rich nomadic weaving heritage. Geographically situated near the Caucasus mountains, weavers in northwestern Iran historically adopted a bold, highly geometric aesthetic, passing down intricate tribal patterns through generations rather than relying on formal written blueprints. This robust tradition is beautifully preserved in the dense, hand-spun wool and deeply saturated natural dyes of this century-old piece. The expansive canvas is anchored by a deep, moody navy blue field. Running the length of the runner is a commanding “pole” sequence of five large, stepped diamond medallions rendered in soft peach, camel, and rust tones. The dark interior space is generously peppered with ancient tribal talismans, including stylized “Tree of Life” motifs—a classic symbol of immortality, fertility, and the connection between earth and the divine—as well as small geometric rosettes. This heavily textured, deeply symbolic interior is formally framed by a vibrant rust-red primary border adorned with an angular vine and floral meander. Crafted with the highly durable, thick mountain wool characteristic of northwestern Persian textiles, this runner retains a remarkably resilient pile that has aged into a beautiful, authentic patina. Its generous 12-foot length and bold tribal geometry make it a phenomenal architectural asset, perfectly suited for anchoring a long traditional hallway, grounding a grand entryway, or adding historical warmth to a transitional corridor.

To ensure the longevity and beauty of your hand-knotted rug, regular maintenance is essential. We recommend vacuuming your rug frequently, being careful to turn off the beater bar to prevent damaging the natural fibers and delicate fringe. If spills occur, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing, which can push the stain deeper. Rotating your piece every few months will help it wear evenly and minimize color fading from direct sunlight. Finally, to truly protect your investment, we advise having your rug professionally washed at our Evanston cleaning facility every few years to gently remove deeply embedded dirt and restore its original luster.
