This vintage 3×8 Persian runner is a Gabbeh rug that originates from the Qashqai tribe—hand-knotted in wool circa 1950-1960. its design hosts a variety of primitivist geometric patterns—its field motifs within squares while its border patterns wrap the field. Keen eyes might note a minimalist take on crowns in the border’s geometry—one of many interpretations that offers such personal pieces a deeper level of intrigue. Pieces like this represent the work of nomadic weavers that favor classic designs and cozy pile with limitless design applications today. Fewer pieces might boast this one’s sheer variety of colors and motifs, though, and the way they lend a more modern sense of life and joy to such archaic motifs. It’s a personal piece with a comfortable texture and presence that can brighten any space it calls home. This mid-century Persian tribal runner further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. It’s ready for the floor, and is equally ideal in wall-hanging projects, too.
