1827 · 3'4" x 9'1" Persian Zanjan Runner Rug

A beige hexagonal medallion extends stepped pendants toward the ends of this lovely rug. Set within a deep red field, geometric boteh and small rosettes scatter around a central axis. A gorgeous beige hexagonal medallion sits at the center, holding a brown core and extending stepped pendants toward the ends. The field corners carry larger angular motifs in brown and blue that mirror the central plan. A beautiful red main border runs the length, filled with brown, beige and blue blossoms. Narrow guard stripes in dark blue and brown flank this broad frame on each side. The pile is worn low across the middle, and the foundation shows through the red. The dark blue guard stripes give the long red shape a clean edge. At 3'4" by 9'1", 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.
