Antique Serab Persian Ivory 1870s Hallway Runner Rug, Circa Date: 1870s. This exceptional example of 19th-century weaving from the Hamadan region is a classic serab piece. Its long, narrow dimensions classify it among the finest examples of hallway runner rugs produced during this era, highly sought after by collectors of antique rugs. The palette is grounded in natural, undyed wool tones, featuring a striking central ivory ground that contrasts beautifully with the rich, oxidized camel browns of the outer borders. Accents of madder red and subtle indigo blue provide necessary punctuation, defining the bold geometric medallions that march down the center of the field. Characteristic of tribal Persian weaving, the design employs a highly stylized, repeating diamond lattice structure.
