This North-West Persian runner rug dates to 1900 and belongs to the Persian Tribal style. Woven with a wool foundation and a soft glossy wool pile, the piece displays a camel-coloured ground with a central row of terracotta anchor medallions floating above it. Additional abstract geometric ornamentation, stepped motifs, and pole medallions complete the design, framed by narrow geometric borders in terracotta, beige, navy, pink, ivory, pale blue, and green hues. The rug measures 453 cm high by 86 cm wide and has a solid durable pile with professionally cleaned surfaces. Suitable for use in a home today, this long runner functions effectively in a long corridor or hallway. The construction incorporates flat selvedges along the sides and short fringing at the ends, while the pile exhibits even wear consistent with its age and professional cleaning.

North-West Persian runners are hand-woven textiles produced in regions such as Heriz, Bakshaish, and Karaja, characterised by bold geometric medallions, stylized tribal motifs, and durable wool construction.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun sheeps wool on a wool or cotton foundation, coloured using dyes derived from local plants and minerals.

Authentic examples feature slight asymmetrical variations in design and dye shade, known as abrash, alongside soft flexibility in the foundation and hand-bound selvedges.

Position the runner in long entryways, corridors, or narrow hallways to introduce structural geometric pattern and warmth against timber, tiles, or stone flooring.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush, vacuum the underside periodically, and rotate the rug annually to distribute foot traffic evenly.
