Antique Persian RugsAntique Persian Sultanabad Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: late 19th century rugs – This rare and unusual antique Sultanabad runner has taken as its design a long vertical excerpt of a larger palmette rug pattern customary on room-size rugs of this kind. The palette too is unusual, much stronger and more vibrant than what is common in larger Sultanabads. The border comes from Northwest Persian runners – Serabs or Kurdish pieces. The result is very much a one-of-a-kind from every point of view.
