This antique Northwest Persian rug, circa 1910, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind runner distinguished by its finely drawn all-over tribal pattern and elongated proportions. The field is rendered in softly faded brown and ivory with pale sky blue abrash bands and geometric border elements, showcasing the nuanced character and age that collectors prize in early Persian weavings. Its understated palette and rhythmic pattern make it an elegant choice for a hallway, entryway, or living room.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, brown, sky blue, taupe, rose, rust, and charcoal, with a brown 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.
