About the Item

Vintage Persian Meshad Art Deco Runner Size: 4'9" × 29'10" (144 × 909 cm) This striking vintage runner, woven in the 1940s in Meshad, Iran, exemplifies the seamless fusion of traditional Persian craftsmanship with modernist Art Deco sensibilities. The runner features a bold, minimalist design: a central vertical black line, evocative of a stylized plant stem, is punctuated by symmetrical offshoots in alternating shades of ivory and black, suggesting abstract leaves or geometric embellishments. Set against a rich, saturated teal blue ground, the composition is both graphic and serene, making it an ideal statement piece for contemporary or mid-century interiors. Hand-knotted in wool, the rug retains the durability and quality typical of Meshad weaving while reflecting a daring departure from ornate classical motifs. The plush pile and subtle tonal variations further enhance its visual depth and texture. This rare design is attributed to the Art Deco movement's influence on Iranian textile art during the early 20th century—a unique testament to global artistic exchange. With its elongated dimensions, this runner is perfect for hallways or narrow spaces needing an injection of elegance, heritage, and artistic flair. Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
