The piece features the distinctive Gol Farang (""foreign flower"") motif—an imaginative Persian interpretation of European floral styles, particularly inspired by 19th-century French Aubusson carpets. A vibrant procession of flower bouquets flows down the navy blue field, rendered in cheerful tones of red, pink, yellow, green, and blue. The lively composition is elegantly framed by an ivory border, enhancing the visual balance and brightening the overall aesthetic. Woven by the Bakhtiari tribes, renowned for their use of high-quality wool and richly detailed designs, this runner is both decorative and durable. Its wider-than-typical proportions make it ideal for spacious corridors, entryways, or even as a statement piece in narrower living or dining spaces. A true blend of rustic charm and refined elegance, this antique runner offers timeless beauty and cultural depth. Dimensions: 4’ x 13’ Date of Manufacture: 2nd Quarter of the 1900s Place of Origin: Persia Material: Wool pile on a cotton foundation Condition: Wear consistent with age and use SKU: 1379" See less
