Red Tribal Antique NW Persian Mid 19th Century Hallway Runner Rug

Antique N.W. Persian 1850s Rug, Country of Origin: Iran Persia, Circa Date: 1850s. This exceptional piece is a testament to the enduring quality of 19th-century weaving, representing the finest examples of antique rugs available today. Its deep, saturated dyes, derived from natural sources, speak to a tradition of meticulous, pre-industrial craftsmanship. Woven in the mid-19th century, this textile exemplifies the robust, yet intricately detailed style characteristic of the N.W. Persian weaving centers. The use of deeply oxidized indigo and rich madder red anchors the palette, typical of pieces originating from Iranian Persian rugs during the Qajar era, demonstrating a sophisticated command of color theory. The primary field features a dense, repeating medallion and stylized floral arrangement, executed in a classic allover design that eliminates the need for a singular central focus.
