4336 · 3'5" x 9'3" Persian Hamedan Runner Rug

A central column of diamonds sits in the navy field of this lovely rug. Small hooked motifs in red, tan and blue cover the navy field around a central column of diamonds. A large serrated diamond sits at the center with a red core, flanked by smaller lozenges toward each end. The main border is brick red, carrying dainty rosettes in square black frames, and a wide blue band runs outside it. A tan guard stripe with small colored marks lines the inner edge. The pile is worn low across much of the field, and the foundation shows in pale streaks. It anchors a long hall, where the bright red shapes break up the navy ground. At 3'5" by 9'3", 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.
