Antique Persian Malayer runner, circa 1920, hand-knotted and one-of-a-kind, with a striking elongated lattice of geometric medallions framed by a narrow border. Its faded indigo field, ivory abrashed highlights, and small rust accents give the piece a time-softened collector's character while showcasing the refined village craftsmanship Malayer rugs are known for. An ideal accent for a hallway, entryway, or kitchen.
Faded cool tones of indigo, ivory, slate, taupe, rust, camel, and blue gray, with a indigo 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.
