This antique NW Persian runner, circa 1930, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind piece with a finely drawn all-over geometric design set against a luminous sky-blue field. Its narrow format, repeating tribal motifs, and layered guard borders create a refined corridor profile, while the aged palette of rose, ivory, and deep brown gives it distinctive decorative character. Hand-knotted and richly patterned, it is especially well-suited for a hallway, entryway, or long kitchen space.
Faded cool tones of sky blue, rose, ivory, brown, slate, and burgundy, with a blue 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.
