This antique Malayer runner, circa 1920, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind Persian rug distinguished by its finely drawn all-over Herati-inspired lattice and softly aged palette. The hand-knotted design pairs an ivory field with warm camel and taupe patterning, giving the piece an elegant, airy presence while showcasing the nuanced geometry and border work prized in village weaving. Its refined scale and understated antique character make it an ideal choice for a hallway, entryway, or narrow bedroom space.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, camel, taupe, beige, sand, and brown, with a ivory 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.
