Antique NW Persian Runner Rug (3' x 13')
Dimensions: 3'10" x 13'0" (117 cm x 396 cm).
Circa: 1890.
This antique Northwest Persian runner, dated circa 1890, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind tribal weaving with a richly drawn geometric field and a sequence of bold medallion forms. Its rust-red ground, ivory border, and saturated accents of indigo, sky blue, and camel create striking contrast, while the hand-knotted wool pile and intricate border work showcase the rugged artistry prized by collectors of 19th-century Persian rugs. An ideal centerpiece for a hallway, entryway, or narrow living space.
Muted warm tones of rust, ivory, indigo, sky blue, camel, crimson, navy, and brown, with a rust 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.
