Antique N.W. Persian Knotted Hallway Runner Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional piece is a testament to the enduring artistry of late 19th-century weaving, representing the finest quality found among antique rugs of this provenance. The precise knotting and use of high-quality wool speak to the dedication of the weavers working in the villages of Northwest Persia during this period. The field is dominated by a highly detailed, repeating boteh design, rendered in a classic allover rugs style that minimizes the ground color and maximizes visual density. Each stylized paisley motif is intricately filled with minute geometric and floral elements, characteristic of the region's sophisticated village craftsmanship, creating a mesmerizing visual rhythm across the length of this long and narrow textile.
