This antique Malayer runner, woven in Persia circa 1930, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind piece with a richly detailed all-over Herati-style field framed by multiple geometric borders. Its deep navy ground, ivory guard borders, and accents of rust, rose, and soft blue create striking contrast and depth, showcasing the crisp drawing and collectible character that make Malayer rugs so admired. A refined hand-knotted wool rug with strong decorative presence, it is especially well-suited for a hallway, entryway, or narrow living space.
Muted warm tones of navy, ivory, rust, rose, camel, sky_blue, and charcoal, with a navy field.
Malayer rugs are woven in and around the town of Malayer in western Iran, within the greater Hamadan district. Comprising over a hundred villages each with its own subtle design traditions, the Malayer region produces hand-knotted rugs on a cotton foundation using the symmetrical Turkish knot — finer and more tightly woven than most Hamadan work.
Malayer designs tend toward the geometric, with herati, mahi (fish), and stylized floral patterns rendered in a traditional palette of deep indigo, madder red, and ivory. Their precise drawing, durable construction, and handsome proportions make antique Malayer rugs a consistently sought-after choice for collectors and decorators alike.
