A long and lean antique Persian runner…it’s a sensation. And a rare one at that. This 1930s Malayer comes in skinny and strong at 2’9 x 17’…a hard-to-find proportion that just hits different in a hallway or kitchen run.
The ground is a deep navy-midnight blue, loaded with floral movement that’s drawn and expressive. You’ve got blossoms and curling vines sprawled throughout the field, and a floral chain framing.
The wool…SO GOOD. High quality, luxurious, and with vegetable dyed wool that’s aged into this rich, moody palette…warm colors playing off cool hues with just enough contrast to keep your eye engaged.
It’s PLUSH. High pile, soft, and cushioned underfoot…you feel it immediately, real comforting. Fluffy in the best way, with a mint-y condition that’s getting harder and harder to come by in true antiques. A hallway heavyweight with a soft side. Durable. Real. Lovely.
