Circa: 1920.
Hand-knotted antique Northwest Persian runner, circa 1920, with a one-of-a-kind sequence of geometric medallions set across a softly faded terracotta field. The elongated composition is framed by an ivory border with sky blue accents, showcasing crisp tribal drawing and the timeworn character collectors prize in early Persian village weavings. An ideal choice for a hallway, entryway, or kitchen.
Faded warm tones of terracotta, ivory, sky blue, camel, taupe, and sienna, with a terracotta 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.
