About the Item

Magnificently Distressed Antique Persian Hamadan Runner This exquisite and character-rich runner rug is an authentic piece of Persian textile history, hand-knotted in the Hamadan region of Persia around the 1920s. Hamadan rugs, known for their rustic durability and traditional geometric motifs, are highly sought after for their tribal charm and enduring construction. A Study in Worn Elegance The captivating presence of this runner is defined by its deep, saturated palette of ruby reds and crimson, beautifully offset by secondary motifs in navy, slate blue, and charcoal. The field is densely populated with intricate, repeating tribal medallions and stepped diamond forms, characteristic of the village weaving tradition. As seen in the photography, the rug boasts a genuine distressed condition—the very feature that lends it a unique, coveted patina. The original wool pile has been worn down in areas, particularly along the central axis, exposing the warp and weft beneath. This beautiful unevenness, often referred to as 'low-pile' or 'wabi-sabi' in modern design, creates an unparalleled depth and softness of color, proving its age and journey through the past century. Measuring an impressive 2'8" x 9'11" (82cm x 302cm), this narrow and long format is perfectly suited to elevate high-traffic areas, whether defining a contemporary hallway, adding warmth to a kitchen galley, or grounding an entryway. A true collector's piece, this Hamadan runner offers soul, texture, and history to any interior design scheme.
