2255 · 2'11" x 7'7" Persian Saveh Runner Rug

This lovely rug sets two stepped diamond medallions on a slate blue field. Across a slate blue field, small geometric motifs in rust, deep red and cream scatter around two gorgeous stepped diamond medallions. The medallions have cores picked out in orange, red and cream and are joined down the center by small stepped forms. Red and orange forms with pink edges sit on either side of each medallion. Large red spandrels with stepped edges fill each corner of the main field. The main border is a narrow band of deep red, with a rose line along its inner side. Narrow guard stripes of blue and cream flank this band. The pile is full across the field and the border. It holds the cool slate blue ground against the warm rust accents in a steady balance. At 2'11" by 7'7", it fits an entry, a hallway corner or the space beside 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.
