Bands of rust and amber with red and blue figures close both ends of this charming rug. The field looks burgundy at first glance, but the ground is deep indigo packed with columns of small boteh in red and orange with blue outlines. The leaf-drop repeats in tight ranks down the length, with no central medallion. No corner pieces break the lattice. Bands of rust and amber with red and blue figures close both ends, and narrow red and navy bands run along the sides. Tiny white flecks show over the face. Full pile covers the surface from end to end. It brings a warm, steady path to a narrow space, and the rust bands frame the dark center. At 3'5" by 10'1", it fits a hallway or the space along the side of a bed.
Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
About Vist rugs
Vist is a village in the Isfahan region, southwest of Khansar and close to Golpayegan. The weaving families of Vist came as nomads from villages around Hamedan, centuries ago. Vist designs passed from mother to child, generation after generation. Vist rugs share straightforward geometry. This runner keeps that plain geometry, with the motifs set in ordered lines across the dark ground. The drawing stays compact and angular, and the rust bands at the ends are the only broad color.

Returns & exchangesMade entirely by hand.
Every knot in this rug was tied by hand, one at a time, on an upright loom. A piece like this is the work of two or three weavers sitting side by side for months, wool worked row by row into a pattern carried from memory, its colors softened by decades of light and use. Nothing about it was quick, and no two are ever the same.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
