Handwoven in wool, circa 1920–1940, this antique 4x15 Persian Malayer runner features a delicate all-over floral geometric design. The narrow elongated field is rendered in muted ivory, blush, faded terracotta, pale sage, and soft brown tones. On the Design: The design reflects the refined village artistry associated with antique Malayer weaving traditions, where geometric precision and floral ornamentation are balanced with remarkable subtlety. Across the elongated field, repeating floral rosettes, angular vinery, and stylized geometric motifs unfold in a rhythmic lattice composition that feels both structured and organic. The narrow runner format further enhances the visual flow of the pattern, allowing the motifs to repeat with graceful continuity across the length of the rug. Particularly compelling is the rug’s softly distressed palette and naturally aged surface. Gentle abrashed tones of faded blush, ivory, muted brown, and pale sage create exceptional depth while preserving the quiet restraint characteristic of early Persian village rugs. The finely articulated border system introduces architectural balance without overwhelming the openness of the field, resulting in a sophisticated antique Malayer runner whose weathered patina and understated geometry lend it timeless decorative versatility. Condition: This antique Persian Malayer rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
