This remarkable Antique Persian Malayer runner is a stunning example of traditional Persian artistry, featuring an intricate all-over design of paisley (boteh) motifs set against a dynamic interplay of soft blue, deep rust, and muted green tones. The boteh, a classic Persian symbol representing life and eternity, is woven in a rhythmic, repeating pattern that gives the rug a rich sense of movement and depth.

The field of the rug is framed by a striking border filled with stylized floral and vine motifs, accentuated by shades of terracotta, ivory, and soft blue. These elements create a beautifully balanced composition that is both bold and refined. The natural variations in color, enhanced by the rug’s age, lend it an appealing patina and an authentic antique charm. See less
