Antique Persian runners typically originate from various weaving centres across Iran, featuring traditional motifs such as medallions, geometric patterns, and intricate floral borders woven by hand using regional techniques passed down through generations.

Authentic pieces are generally constructed with hand-spun sheeps wool pile knotted onto cotton or wool foundation warps and wefts, utilising natural plant and mineral dyes for the colour palette.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularity of hand-knotting on the reverse, the organic ageing and soft oxidisation of natural wool fibres, and the presence of abrash, which is the subtle tonal variation in colour resulting from different dye batches.

Interior designers frequently use antique runners to ground modern hallways, corridors, or kitchens, pairing the historical texture and rich colour palette with minimalist furniture to create a balanced scheme.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without the beater bar, professional hand-washing by specialists in textile conservation, and the use of a breathable underlay to prevent slippage and fibre abrasion.
