Malayer 1864

A stunning 19th century Persian Malayer long runner featuring an allover Herati pattern, handwoven in the late 1800s in the northwestern region of Persia. Set against a rich navy blue field, this village-woven rug showcases a harmonious palette of vibrant rust red, turquoise, yellow, orange, and brown. The intricate Herati design is accented with subtle animal motifs artfully scattered throughout the field—an exceptional detail that highlights the creativity of its weaver.

Framed by a well-balanced triple border in complementary tones, this antique runner exemplifies the elegance and craftsmanship of Malayer weaving. Its elongated proportions and bold color story make it ideal for hallways, entryways, or layered in larger interior design projects. A truly one-of-a-kind piece that brings warmth, artistry, and cultural heritage into any space.
