This antique Malayer runner, hand-knotted in Persia circa 1930, is a handmade one-of-a-kind piece with a beautifully time-softened palette and an elongated village design. Its faded taupe field is layered with pale aqua, ivory, and soft brown patterning, framed by a subtle border and worn-in motifs that give it exceptional character and decorative versatility. An ideal choice for a hallway, entryway, or narrow living space.
Faded neutral tones of taupe, ivory, sage, camel, and brown, with a taupe 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.
