Bearing the fine design sensibilities of the early 20th century, the runner features a gorgeous geometric pattern displaying an unprecedented sense of movement for its lineage. The combination of lustrous gray background and red in the pomegranate pattern is tastefully accompanied by brown, green, and crisp white on the border to lighten the mood while gracefully complementing the natural sheen of deeper hues. Connoisseurs may further note an interesting orientation to the motifs of the outer border, departing from exact alternations for a more subtly intriguing presence lending to this Khotan’s rarity. Prevailing in healthy condition for its age and origin, an idyllic choice for a variety of prestigious hallways, corridors, and entryways. Especially ideal for country homes, foyers, farm houses, cabins, and ski lodges among vast applications. less
