About the Item

79104 Antique Persian Kerman Rug Runner, 04'03 x 19'10. Steeped in history and woven with meticulous artistry, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Kerman rug runner epitomizes the refined elegance of Persian textile traditions. Graceful in its elongated form, this exquisite piece showcases a harmonious blend of intricate geometry and floral flourishes that lends a dreamlike patina to its hues. The delicate latticework unfolds across the field, forming a diamond trellis adorned with finely detailed blossoms, evoking the lush gardens of Kerman’s storied past. Every motif is imbued with meaning, echoing centuries of Persian design where floral patterns symbolize renewal, abundance, and the eternal beauty of nature. The prayer-like niche at either end of the field hints at a spiritual undertone, further emphasizing the reverence with which this runner was woven. The gently abrashed beige field is punctuated by hues of soft red, tranquil blue, and warm brown, lending a sense of quiet sophistication to the composition. The natural dyes have mellowed over time, revealing a poetic interplay of warm and cool tones that enhance the overall depth and character of the Kerman carpet runner. Subtle shifts in color and intricate detailing reflect the mastery of the artisans who hand-knotted each motif with precision and care. Framing this visual symphony is an exquisitely detailed border, adorned with a meandering floral pattern interwoven with angular cartouches and stylized botanical motifs. The soft pastel tones of the border create a gentle contrast against the field, adding layers of refinement and structural balance. An interplay of delicate vinery, geometric diamonds, and delicate floral sprays flanked by inner and outer guard bands evokes the sophistication and grandeur of Persian courtly aesthetics. The aged beauty of this Kerman runner speaks to its enduring legacy, making it a cherished piece for connoisseurs and collectors alike. Whether placed in a grand hallway, an intimate reading nook, or a space where history and artistry converge, this antique Kerman rug runner effortlessly enhances its surroundings. A timeless testament to Persian weaving excellence, it carries with it the whispers of the past—tales of master artisans, regal interiors, and the time-honored traditions that have defined Kerman’s illustrious rug-making heritage. This is not just a floor covering, but an heirloom imbued with cultural richness and timeless grace. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measure: 04'03 x 19'10. Pile Height: 0.12 of an inch.
