About the Item

A Woven Lattice: The Subtle Artistry of a Vintage Persian Malayer Runner This exquisite runner is a superb example of the subtle yet complex artistry of the Malayer weaving tradition from Iran. It doesn't shout for attention, but rather captivates with its intricate, all-over pattern and a beautifully time-mellowed color palette. It is a piece of authentic textile art, designed to bring a sense of history and quiet elegance to your home. Design & Technique: The Intricate Lattice The design is a classic Malayer all-over lattice, where a repeating network of small, stylized floral or geometric motifs creates a mesmerizing, textural field. This dense, harmonious pattern is a hallmark of Malayer weaving, showcasing the weaver's incredible skill and patience in creating a seamless, flowing composition. This level of detail is achieved through the meticulous Hand-Knotted technique, a time-honored Persian craft that ensures both beauty and exceptional durability.

Style & Color: A Study in Muted Harmony The rug's all-over pattern gives it remarkable versatility, making it a perfect Transitional piece. It can seamlessly integrate into both modern and traditional interiors, providing a rich, textural foundation without a dominant central focal point. The color palette is a sophisticated blend of cool and warm earth tones that exude a calming, vintage feel. The main field is a complex, heathered slate blue or dusty gray-green, beautifully interwoven with a slightly darker lattice pattern. Each small motif is punctuated with a surprising, jewel-like dot of warm terracotta or faded rust, adding a subtle spark of warmth. The wide, elegant border in a contrasting sandy beige provides a light and airy frame for the denser central field. The natural color variations ('abrash') throughout are a testament to its authentic, hand-dyed Wool origins. . Crafted from 100% resilient Wool, this runner possesses a dense, low pile that has been worn to a soft, velvety finish over time. This high-quality wool ensures a texture that is both inviting underfoot and built to last for generations. As a Runner Rug measuring 31 by 158 inches, it is perfectly scaled to transform a hallway, entryway, or long corridor into a path of understated luxury and authentic Persian heritage.
