About the Item

A Traditional Iranian Malayer Wool Runner Rug This extraordinary runner displays a rich, dense pattern of traditional motifs on a profound, dark field. Its robust construction and antique aesthetic command visual authority, providing an artful and enduring pathway. Visual Characteristics & Malayer Design Primary Field Color: Profound Charcoal/Black The central field of this runner rug features a profound charcoal or near-black background. This specific hue provides a dramatic and sophisticated foundation. It serves as a striking backdrop for the intricate pattern elements. Pattern Color Palette: Muted Luminescence The prominent motifs adorning the field are rendered in a palette of muted luminescence. Lighter greys, subtle creams, delicate blues, and hints of faded pink or red interweave. These colors emerge with a soft glow against the dark field. Dense, All-Over Boteh Pattern The rug's design showcases a dense, all-over pattern of Boteh motifs. These traditional tear-drop shapes fill the entire central field. They create a continuous visual texture and profound detail from end to end. The Enduring Paisley Form The Boteh, or paisley, form is a characteristic and enduring element of traditional Persian designs. Each motif is intricately detailed. It contributes to the overall complexity and fine artistry of the central pattern. The Presence of Pronounced Abrash & Distress The rug exhibits pronounced abrash across its surface. This is a natural color variation. It also displays visible distressing. This contributes to an authentic, antique appearance, as if aged by time and use. The Wide, Intricate Border A wide, multi-layered border frames the central design. This border is intricately patterned with floral and geometric motifs.
