This Persian traditional hallway runner dates from the year 1900, handwoven from wool and cotton. The design displays a dark navy field filled with floral motifs, complemented by three central cream medallion shapes and framed by a red multi-band border. Secondary colours of red, pink, and pale blue enrich the detailed woven pattern. Measuring 425 cm high by 96 cm wide and 1 cm deep, the runner fits long interior corridors and spacious hallways. Placed in a home today, it functions as a decorative floor covering that anchors traditional hallway schemes or English country house interiors. The piece shows light, age-related wear, with secure fringes and selvages following a professional cleaning.

FAQs

Malayer rugs originate from the village of Malayer in western Iran, south of Hamadan. Woven during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these carpets are characterised by single-weft construction, diverse geometric or curvilinear medallion designs, and natural dye palettes.

Traditional Malayer runners feature a hand-spun wool pile knotted onto a cotton warp and weft foundation. The wool was dyed using vegetable and plant-based dyes, producing deep navy, madder red, and cream tones.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural variations in dye colour, known as abrash, alongside irregular weave density characteristic of hand-loomed textiles. The back of the rug will mirror the front design clearly without synthetic backing material.

Long runners are designed to anchor entrance hallways, long corridors, or narrow landings. They pair effectively with polished timber flooring, stone flags, or neutral painted skirting boards to add warmth and geometric contrast.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar to protect the pile. Rotate the rug annually to balance foot traffic and light exposure, and place a quality rug underlay beneath to prevent slipping and wear.
