Antique Persian Persian Malayer Runner Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1920 – This beautiful antique Persian Malayer runner rug features gorgeous paisley patterns reproduced attractively down the center of the antique rug. The viewer’s attention glides to the top of the masterpiece, where the eyes can descend down over the extravagantly sewn and layered elements. Bright red tones stand out against a cobalt blue nightscape, the colors chosen for their elegant degree of contrast and the way they create movement within the landscape. A crisp white border outlines the center of the antique Persian Malayer rug, and a series of blossoms in irregular patterns of red, green, peach and blue settle along the framework in an attractive display of color.
