Name: High-End Antique Runner | GORGEOUS Clay, Rose, Salmon, Apricot Nomadic Tribal Antique Runner

Size: 3.4 x 13.9

Age: Antique, C. 1920-30's (maybe even earlier)

Pile: Low pile with a wonderful sturdy body and will last for a very long time. This piece is nearly bullet proof. There are some subtle areas here and there that we've re-piled but these things are often not even mentioned because with age old rugs it's expected to have re-piling, reweaving, and just proper repairs along it's journey.

About: This is for sure one of the most incredible runners we've ever had/seen/offered. Northwest village runner with amazing heft body to withstand whatever traffic you have, soft and unusually muted colors with its original and truly magnificent abrash shifting hugely from one end to another and filled with rusty clays, dusty apricots, rosy pink hues, to earthy saffron, muted salmon and about 10 other varieties of these shades! Sensational blues, lovely pink border, and saturated grassy greens with un-dyed original sheep wool and more. Earthy espresso and chocolates highlight some geometric motifs, lovely touches of delicate flower heads, specs of random dyed wool show up in an improvised and spontaneous fashion. Naive geometric jagged leaf and diamond motifs dazzle the interior of the center medallions, and the simple negative space in the field emphasizes this striking center anchors to quite literally draw you in and pull you towards the runner suggesting "walk on me!", as it should be. ANCIENT Bakshayesh border and just an all-around SUPER UNIQUE Antique Runner. You will NEVER EVER find another piece like this. This piece has many birthmarks, one of them being a subtle bow in the shape elevating it to be become "perfect's" arch-nemesis - and it's a glorious thing! Truly a high-end nomadic masterpiece that is woven by artists and dyed by masters. So rare, so good, you will LOVE this piece.

Any questions about this rug? Don't hesitate to reach out!

We always recommend a high-quality custom cut pad for any and all rugs; these pads are made for hand-knotted rugs. They create a body and support the knots of the rug, as well as prevent it from slipping and sliding.

A note from us to you: Buying a rug is special; it's not just you finding the rug, but also the rug finding you. Think about the many coincidences that have to occur for you to find the rug of your dreams. Our rugs are woven by nomads in the villages and remote mountainous regions of the major rug weaving districts across the world. All of our rugs are genuinely old and one-of-a-kind. Like anything old and unique, they are filled with character, soul, and story. The story of a rug is something we think about a lot; who was the weaver(s)? Did they weave it for personal use, commerce, to gift, or trade? Who was the second owner, and the third!? Sometimes the little motifs and symbols in rugs can help tell the story, but we will never truly know - there's something beautiful about that. Alas, our joy is to curate these incredible pieces that speak to us, and to pass them along to their new owners to be enjoyed and cherished for many years to come; both continuing to add to the story of the rug, and to the story of the new owners.
