About the Item

Woven in the Karaja region of northwest Iran during the mid-1900s, this runner features a rhythmic chain of three angular diamond medallions—each framed by stepped battlements and filled with stylized latch-hook motifs. A whisper-soft palette of ivory, stone grey, misty aqua, and blush beige lends the traditionally bold Heriz-influenced geometry a serene, contemporary air. Delicate rosettes, serrated leaves, and geometric stars float in the open field, while a narrow main border packed with reciprocal crab and cross-hatch patterns provides gentle definition. The low, evenly shorn wool pile delivers a velvety hand and a time-softened patina, making this piece an understated statement for hallways, galleries, or behind a long kitchen island.
