Antique Sultanabad Hallway Runner Wool Blue Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1880s. This magnificent example of 19th-century weaving showcases the grand scale and sophisticated palette characteristic of Sultanabad rugs. Woven during a period of artistic revival, this piece exemplifies the finest traditions of Iranian / Persian rugs, designed to complement the expansive interiors of the Victorian and Edwardian eras.

This dramatic contrast ensures the piece retains visual impact even when viewed along the length of a corridor.
