1950s Mid-Century Mehraban Runner Blue Red Persian Floral Rug 12491

Hand-knotted in wool originating from Persia circa 1950-1960, this vintage Persian runner connotes a mid-century Mehraban floral rug design with a refined approach to color seldom seen in this scale, particularly in the midnight-blue colorway background almost reading black in juxtaposition to the lighter jasmine blue and red variations in the floral pattern. Connoisseurs and designers will note the subtle variation between more curving and geometric floral patterns between the border and field alike, highlighting a rare versatility in such a way creating a natural sense of depth complementing the movement in this 3×16 runner; a welcome addition to the Antique & Vintage rug collection from Rug & Kilim and an ideal selection for stairway runner and hallway runner projects in more traditional and European homes.
