This vintage Persian runner, woven in the mid-20th century, is basically flower power in rug form. Think wild 70s floral vibe with a Persian twist. Rows of blooming flowers line up in alternating colors, like midnight blue, burgundy, ruby, wheat, and toffee, set against a ground that shifts from an orange-coral like-burst to peachy tones. That shift, known as abrash, is the result of different batches of dyed wool being introduced into the weaving process, which makes this gem totally unique.
The borders are just as fun, with slim floral and ribbon-like motifs framing all that color and pattern within. Beyond looks, this runner is a workhorse. It’s seriously HEAVY, built with dense wool, and can handle as much foot traffic as you throw at it. Kitchens, hallways, or entryways are no problem for this beauty.
At over ten feet long, it stretches out with confidence and with the mix of warm tones with playful bursts of contrasting colors giving it a vibrant story that’s both retro and versatile. Whether you’re a fan of mid-century style or you just want a durable runner that can brighten up a space, this one delivers with both.
