This antique Malayer runner, woven in Persia circa 1940, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind piece with an elegant all-over geometric-floral design framed by a refined border. Its softly faded palette of ivory, taupe, sand, and pale blue gives the hand-knotted field a luminous, timeworn character that complements both traditional and transitional interiors. A sophisticated choice for a hallway, entryway, or kitchen.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, taupe, sand, camel, pale blue, and beige, 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.
