Antique Gabbeh Hallway Runner Wool Blue Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional piece is a classic example of gabbeh weaving, characterized by its thick, hand-spun wool pile and bold, geometric designs traditionally associated with nomadic Qashqai tribes.

The composition is dominated by a rich, saturated deep blue field, providing a striking contrast to the repeating stepped medallions rendered in earthy terracotta and rust tones. Small, stylized cruciform motifs punctuate the negative space, adding visual interest and confirming the rug's tribal authenticity. The use of natural dyes ensures the enduring vibrancy characteristic of fine vintage textiles.

Woven from high-quality wool, this rug exhibits the robust construction necessary for a high-traffic area. Its dimensions make it an ideal hallway runner, guiding the eye through a space with its strong linear design. The provenance confirms its Iranian / Persian heritage, reflecting centuries of sophisticated weaving tradition.

Dating to the 1930s, this item possesses the desirable patina and authenticity highly sought after in true antique rugs. It is a functional work of art, offering both historical depth and unparalleled durability for the discerning collector seeking a statement piece of textile history. See less
