Antique N.W. Persian Blue 1890s Hallway Runner Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of antique rugs from Northwest Persia showcases the robust, deeply saturated color palette typical of late 19th-century village production. The structure and design suggest a strong tribal hand, prioritizing geometric abstraction over formal courtly patterns. The primary field is rendered in a magnificent, inky indigo, a testament to the skill of the dyer and the quality of the natural dyes used during this era. This deep, resonant shade places the piece among the finest blue color rugs available from the region. The central axis features repeating cruciform and latch-hook motifs, creating dynamic movement within the long and narrow format. Woven specifically as a hallway runner rug, this piece retains a remarkable density and handle, ideal for high-traffic areas.
