Antique N.W. Persian Kurdish Multicolor 1850s Hallway Runner Rug, Circa Date: 1850s. This exceptional piece of textile history represents the pinnacle of 19th-century tribal weaving from the mountainous regions of Northwest Persia. Its age places it firmly among the most desirable antique rugs available today, showcasing the enduring quality of natural dyes and handspun wool. The structure of this runner is defined by its highly successful use of verticality. The central panel features numerous narrow columns of repeating, small-scale geometric elements, creating a mesmerizing, rhythmic field. This dense, repeating structure classifies it as an allover rug design, perfectly adapted to the narrow format typical of traditional nomadic and village production. The palette is a striking example of multicolor jewel tone rugs from the period.
