Antique Paisley Design Persian Malayer Runner Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1920 – This antique Persian Malayer Rug, an antique runner rug from Persia, appears classically beautiful in a color palette that pairs deep jewel tones with fair neutrals for a mature yet still playful paisley design. A rich, deep royal blue operates as the backdrop for foreground elements that bloom with creamy ivory. The full length of this antique Persian runner rug is patterned with a beautiful boteh or paisley design and surrounded by a delicate chain border. In the center of the of this antique rug is a fantastic medallion that flows outward in a diamond to break up the other elements, and the corners of the piece feature the same floral motifs.
