A 20 Century rare size Malayer Runner with an all-over design on a abrashed soft blue field. Professionally Cleaned and able to endure heavy traffic if necessary.
Malayer and the surrounding villages produced some of the most decorative of village weavings. At the finer levels, each Malayer Oriental carpet is distinct, the weavers having drawn on a large pool of designs, investing much originality in their creation.This richness of motifs makes antique Malayer rugs endlessly interesting. The “boteh” or sprouting seed (a sign of rebirth and growth in nature) was a favorite motif of the antique rug weavers, sometimes covering the field in small rugs and runners. This particular example is quite rare as its a long runner. less
