  • ObjectRunner Rugs
  • Period19th century
  • StylePersian Tribal
  • MaterialWool, Cotton
  • ColourMadder Red
  • MotifsGeometrical lozenge medallions, Stylised birds and animals, Serrated borders, Repeated field motifs
  • SizeH 457 cm (180 in) x W 82 cm (32 in) x D 0.6 cm (0 in)

Khamseh rugs are woven by a confederation of five tribes in southwestern Persia, typically characterised by fine wool, deep indigo and madder red colour palettes, and distinctive geometric or pictorial motifs.

These rugs are traditionally crafted with hand-spun wool piles knotted onto wool or cotton foundations, utilizing natural vegetable dyes derived from plants, roots, and insects.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularity of hand-knotted fringes, natural colour variations in the wool known as abash, traditional tribal iconography, and the tightness of the weave.

An antique runner brings warmth and texture to neutral or contemporary spaces, and is typically placed in high-traffic hallways, corridors, or narrow entryways to ground the area.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, professional hand-washing by specialists in textile conservation, and the use of a breathable underlay to prevent friction wear.
