This antique Northwest Persian runner, circa 1920, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind piece with a striking tribal geometric design and a crisp ivory field framed by a bold indigo border. Its repeating latch-hook and stylized boteh-like motifs, rendered in hand-knotted wool with beautifully aged color, give the rug strong graphic presence and collector appeal. An ideal choice for a hallway, entryway, or office.
Muted cool tones of ivory, indigo, camel, rust, slate, and brown, 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.
