Name: KISSING LIONS / LEOPARDS Rare & Decorative Antique Runner with Duel Feline Subjects in Center | 2.11 x 10.6
Size: 2.11 x 10.6
Age: Antique, C. 1930's
Pile: Strong Medium pile with some distrss and age-related wear - good! We want some age and story to our rugs - and speaking of story - THIS PIECE AS IT ALL.
About: NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS... Duel Lions / Leopards as the Centerpiece of this runner - so uncommon to see this; we know Lions are a big part of Persian culture, as are all beautiful large Cats - but to see them in the center cartouche / panel with other charming animals and birds wove inside symbolizing good luck, prosperity and beyond - this is just awesome. Maybe it was a wedding gift symbolism the two lovers at the center, maybe it was the weaver inspired by her 2 children - whatever it is, it's INCREDIBLE. Not to mention all the lovely abrash, the Herati Fish, and the Unique Teal, Pastel Green, Rich Saffron, Cantaloup Orange, and Grayish-Charcoal to smokey Indigo dyes - SENSATIONAL palette. This is what it's all about, curating the most unique and beautifully story-filled rugs ever and letting them find you to enjoy for generations to come. Great size too!
This rug is one-of-a-kind, only one in the world, no others are available.
