About the Item
Antique Persian Kirman Runner
Size: 3'1" × 16'0" (93 × 487 cm).
This exquisite antique Persian Kirman runner from the 1920s is a stunning example of the region’s masterful craftsmanship and intricate design sensibility. Characterized by a lush botanical motif, the runner features a finely woven allover floral pattern that radiates symmetry and visual harmony.
The field is saturated in deep cerulean blue, providing a vivid contrast to the soft ivory and earthy beige tones of the floral elements. Stylized blossoms, leafy vines, and palmettes form an elegant garden-like composition that flows gracefully along the length of the rug. The design includes mirrored floral arrangements and tree-like structures, lending it a sense of organic rhythm and balance.
Enclosed by a broad border of complementary floral scrolls on a neutral ground, the runner maintains the refined elegance Kirman rugs are known for. Multiple minor borders introduce shades of cool aqua and faded celadon, adding subtle variation without overpowering the central field.
Hand-knotted in fine wool, the rug reflects the high standards of Persian Kirman weaving from the early 20th century. Its supple texture and dense knotting ensure durability while preserving the delicacy of its floral aesthetic. The muted palette and timeless design make it an excellent choice for a hallway, stairwell, or transitional space seeking warmth and historical depth.
This antique Kirman runner is not merely a functional textile but a work of art — embodying both the decorative opulence and meditative beauty of Persian weaving traditions.
A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition.Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
