Antique Dhurrie Hallway Runner Cotton Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1935. This exceptional piece is a vibrant example of mid-century textile art, showcasing a bold, repeating geometric pattern executed in rich, contrasting hues. The runner format makes it an ideal choice for defining long, narrow spaces, as is typical for hallway runner rugs.

Woven primarily from cotton, the construction is refined yet durable, perfectly suited for high-traffic areas. The striking juxtaposition of deep indigo and rust red creates an electric visual rhythm, emphasizing the complex, interlocking motifs that define the Dhurrie style. The saturated pigment offers a sophisticated depth often sought in blue color rugs.

The design features highly stylized, abstract medallions and zig-zagging forms, reminiscent of traditional ikat weaving techniques or tribal flatweaves. This bold graphic quality reflects the emerging modern design sensibilities of the 1930s while retaining a deep connection to indigenous textile traditions.

As a genuine textile dating to 1935, this piece offers both aesthetic impact and historical provenance. It stands as a testament to enduring craftsmanship, making it a valuable and distinctive addition to any curated collection of authentic antique rugs. See less
