Traditional hand-woven 100% wool Malayer runner rug featuring a rich cobalt blue field adorned with a vertical column of three distinct, large-scale geometric medallions in cream, red, and navy, framed by a crimson red border with repeating floral and geometric motifs, finished with short fringes, SKU 67049, size 2′6″ × 8′1″.

This Traditional Malayer runner embraces the rich, village-weaving heritage of historic Persia, offering a spectacular display of bold tribal geometry and remarkably vibrant color. The elongated field showcases a masterfully organized layout characterized by a dramatic vertical succession of distinct, large-scale geometric medallions, each intricately detailed with inner stepped polygons, stylized motifs, and serrated edges. The composition is defined by a deep, incredibly energetic foundation of royal cobalt blue, brilliantly contrasted by the intricate patterns woven in fiery crimson red, warm terracotta, soft teal, and creamy ivory. A beautifully structured, deep red main border adorned with classic repeating rosette motifs perfectly frames the dynamic piece. The robust, highly resilient hand-spun wool pile creates a wonderfully thick, steadfast canvas that catches the light, effortlessly bringing sophisticated texture, historical depth, and striking artisanal character to curated spaces.
Hand-woven in 100% premium wool, this rug offers an exceptionally durable, steadfast foundation with a plush, comforting presence underfoot, elegantly finished with traditional short fringes at the ends. Measuring a highly versatile 2′6″ × 8′1″, it serves as a stunning, visually anchoring accent for long transitional hallways, galley kitchens, welcoming entryways, or behind a sofa, bringing soulful artistry and exquisite hand-made craftsmanship to the heart of the home.

Vacuum regularly without a beater bar (suction only) to protect the plush wool fibers and preserve the dimensional pile. A high-quality rug pad is strongly recommended to prevent slipping and provide cushioning. Rotate occasionally to ensure even wear. Professional cleaning is highly recommended.
