This antique Northwest Persian runner, circa 1910, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind piece with a finely drawn all-over tribal lattice rendered in softly aged earth tones. Its narrow format, repeating geometric motifs, and crisp border structure give it the quiet authority collectors prize in early Persian village weaving, while the worn palette adds an elegant, time-softened character. An ideal choice for a hallway, entryway, or office.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, brown, taupe, camel, sage, and charcoal, with a ivory field.
Northwest Persian is a regional designation covering the broad arc of carpet-producing areas in Azerbaijan, Kurdistan, and the surrounding provinces of northwestern Iran — including Heriz, Serapi, Bakhshayesh, Karaje, and the many Kurdish and Shahsavan tribal weaving groups of the region. The area has been one of the most prolific and important sources of antique carpets in the world.
Northwest Persian rugs share a family resemblance: bold geometric or semi-geometric designs, strong natural dye palettes, and robust construction on wool or cotton foundations. The range of quality and style is enormous — from grand Serapi palace carpets to humble village runners — but all share a vitality and directness that makes them perennially compelling.
