Antique Sarab Runner

1900 - 1920
Description

Amazing tribal antique Sarab runner woven around 1890-1900, with connecting medallions and down the centre with a delightful small design in the camel field colour.  Beautifully woven and with wonderful pale blues, oranges and red tones.

Minor old preservation restoration on this runner as you would probably expect with a piece of this age, but it is scattered and minimal.  We have beautiful dye change in the minor guardrail borders, going from light blue to darker blues.  A very attractive tribal runner woven in East Azerbaijan which is one of 30 provinces in north-west Persia.

Sarab is famous for good quality runners and rugs and their design is almost always geometric, with repeating medallions.  More often the medallions are hex-column, meaning the hexagons are attached to each other through the length of the runner like we see on this piece.

Purchase this antique runner online from us and we shall securely courier it to your home, with our excellent anti-slip rug underlay which is included in the price.  Or contact us to view it at our barn showroom in Crondall, Surrey.

Request a home visit to view this wonderful rare antique runner in your own home, please let us know a preferred day and time to see you.  As we have travelled all over the UK visiting customers as far as Norfolk, Scotland and Ireland over the last 30 years.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

Originating from Northwest Persia, Sarab rugs are renowned for their geometric designs, camel hair or wool fields, and distinctive central pole medallion structures.

They are hand-knotted using natural wool or undyed camel hair pile onto a sturdy cotton or wool warp and weft foundation.

Key indicators include a natural camel or beige lattice field, geometric stepped medallions, natural dye colour variations, and hand-bound edges.

Position the runner in a hallway, entryway, or alongside a bed to introduce structural geometric patterns and warm grounding tones into a room scheme.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotary brush, rotate the piece annually to balance traffic wear, and arrange professional cleaning using pH-neutral products.
