This antique Northwest Persian runner is a handmade, one-of-a-kind tribal rug from circa 1910, distinguished by its elongated format and bold sequence of geometric medallions set against a deep navy field. Hand-knotted with a richly detailed border and crisp angular motifs in rust, ivory, and sky blue, it showcases the graphic clarity and collectible character prized in early Persian village weaving. An ideal centerpiece for a hallway, entryway, or narrow living space.
Muted warm tones of navy, rust, sky blue, ivory, camel, and slate, with a navy 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.
