Long Persian Wool Runner, Circa 1890, 4.43m X 0.94m

19th century
Description

This is striking Persian runner from the Sultanabad district in West Persia. The design is two dramatically drawn medallions in a lovely sky-blue on a sapphire background. The medallions are surrounded by stylised palmettes and plants drawn in a charming angular manner. The design is freely drawn, displaying the weaver's artistic skills. This is a visual feast, and is a demonstration of Persian village weaving at its best. The materials, handspun wool and natural dyes, are excellent. Furthermore the size is excellent, exceptionally narrow for a piece of this length. Cherished through the generations, it has survived in excellent condition. Professionally cleaned in our workshops, it is ready for immediate use.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Late 19th-century Persian runners are hand-knotted floor coverings crafted in regional weaving centres across Persia, designed specifically to furnish narrow corridors. They typically showcase repeating central medallions, geometric floral motifs, and rich, vegetable-dyed wool construction.

These carpets were hand-knotted using hand-spun sheeps wool on a cotton or wool warp and weft foundation. Colours were derived from organic vegetable and mineral dyes, resulting in rich hues that age gracefully over time.

Authentic antique Persian runners display slight natural variations in colour known as abrash, caused by batch-dyed wools. The reverse side reveals visible, hand-tied knots matching the top design, rather than a uniform machine backing or synthetic latex lining.

Long runners are frequently used to draw the eye along entry hallways, landing spaces, or wide galleries. They add structure, texture, and colour when paired with neutral walls and exposed timber flooring.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush to prevent fibre pull. High-traffic areas benefit from a quality underlay pad to reduce wear, and professional cleaning by a specialist carpet restorer is recommended when required.
