Traditional oriental and Persian style runner rugs were originally hand-knotted by nomadic tribes and village weavers to insulate stone and timber floors in long corridors and halls.

Authentic traditional runners are typically constructed with a hand-spun wool pile on a cotton or wool foundation, often dyed using natural vegetable and mineral colourants.

Authentic hand-knotted pieces can be identified by examining the rear of the carpet to see the individual knots, irregular fringe attachment, and slight variations in the geometric motifs.

A long runner rug anchors narrow spaces such as hallways, entryways, or galley kitchens, adding texture and warmth while directing traffic flow through the home.

Preserve a wool runner by regular gentle suction vacuuming without a rotating brush, using a quality underlay to prevent slippage, and professional cleaning when required.
