About the Item
1900s Antique English Axminster Wool Runner
Size: 1'10" × 10'10" (55 × 330 cm)
This exquisite antique Axminster runner from early 20th-century England is a vibrant example of the refined craftsmanship and design sensibilities that defined British textile artistry around the turn of the century. Handwoven circa 1900, the runner exhibits the classic Axminster technique—characterized by its rich wool pile, intricate detailing, and refined composition.
A dynamic interplay of deep reds, navy blues, and warm earth tones animates the meandering floral and vine motifs that dance across the field. The all-over design is framed by a richly ornamented border, its stylized blossoms and scrolling foliage lending structure and balance to the composition. The lustrous wool pile remains plush and full, as shown in the close-up images, revealing the dense knotting and luxurious texture that make Axminster carpets so enduringly desirable.
Despite its age, the rug is in very good condition, with crisp outlines and well-preserved colors. This narrow format makes it ideal as a hallway runner, stair carpet, or gallery accent. With its timeless elegance and vivid palette, this antique runner would seamlessly complement both traditional interiors and more eclectic, layered spaces.
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.
